Thanks for the tip. I'm going to give it a shot over the weekend. I'll let you guys know how it goes.

Here's an update. I unistalled everything Adobe and Cineform related, deleting all render and cached files that I could think of. I then ran CCleaner to make sure the registry was good to go.

Then I reinstalled Adobe CS5 fresh and new, 5.0.0. Before I updated I installed the newest Cineform build, 291. Then I updated CS5. After several unsuccessful attempts to download 5.0.2 from Adobe's archive, I updated to 5.0.3. I had work to do, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Update was successful.

So far editing has been much more stable than before the reinstall. I have not yet re-enabled the Mercury hardware engine though. I'm suspicious that it might the problem as the 5.0.3 update was primarily a CUDA support update. I have not yet tried any exporting either.

More later as I find issues.

Thanks for the update, Chad.

I've rolled back to CS5 5.0 and am running Neoscene's 5.2.7.290, codec V. 6.9.2.529. Seems to be working OK. Am very reluctant to update Adobe CS though.

Thanks Shmuley. If you do upgrade and run into trouble, please post and tell us the details.
