About a month ago I upgraded to windows xp x64 after tascam finally released the drivers for the dm3200. I installed Master collection CS3, and all my other apps that I had installed on the same computer but under x86 (32bit). One of those applications was windows media encoder x64. I then tried to select the windows media options in adobe media encoder and i get the following error:
An unhandled win32 exception occured in Adobe Premiere Pro.exe [3024]

I tracked dow the issue on this and other forums that it had something to do with windows media encoder. I followed all the steps they had including the ones from microsoft. Is there any way to correct this action other than a complete re-install of my operating system? It took me over 2 days to re-install all my stuff and transfer my project back off my network...

It could be an XP-64 issue. I have Premiere Pro 2.0 and I lost the ability to burn DVDs directly from the timeline after I got a new computer with Win XP-64, which I have learned is not supported by any version of Premiere.

I'd like to upgrade to CS4 but it does not support 64-bit XP (even though it does support 64-bit versions of Vista) and I'd hate to find out that key tasks won't work. I'll have to wait to see if Windows 7 (Vista's successor) is a decent program. I'd rather not go back to 32-bit XP and I refuse to bother with Vista.
