Process Hangs During Export to Tape

Hi,

I'm running Premiere 6.0 on a PIII, 600Mhz, w/256MB RAM. The computer came with a Texas Instruments compliant IEEE 1394 Firewire card. I know that people have posted here stating that Premeire 6.0 is not compliant with the TI IEEE-1394 card. Nevertheless, I have never experienced any problems capturing video.

However, after all of my editing is complete and I want to export a final project to tape back on my camcorder, I almost always have a problem. After about 30 seconds, the picture on the viewfider of my camcorder (Canon ZR-30mc) pixilates, the sound hangs, and the whole process stops. While this is happening, the same picture on the monitor of my PC freezes at the point where the process hangs. I can hit "escape" to get out of the process on my PC. However, the only way I can stop the racket on my camcprder is to physically remove the Firewire.

I thought I had a problem with my camera, so I sent it back to Canon. They tinkered with a few things, but it still happens. I thought it may be a memory issue so I upgraded from 128 to 256 - still same problem.

Any ideas?? I haven't tried to reinstall Premier yet. I guess there could also be a problem with the IEEE 1394 card on my PC, although I do not experience any problems in capturing video, or controling the camera remotely.

I'm stupmed!
