High Quality vs Medium Quality at DVinfo.net

When I was using the trial copy of Cineform, I would usually use the medium quality preset to edit, but now that I own Cineform I've decided to start using the high quality setting. However, I've notice that my Premiere Pro seems to run quite slowly. Does working with the higher quality setting have a drastic impact on system resources? Because I've started to have issues of the audio not playing back smoothly with the video. I'm not sure if it's just my PC that needs to be reformatted (though I do this quite frequently) or if I can resolve the issue by just going back to the medium quality setting.

Or maybe it's a CS3 issue, and that most of what I've done before was on Premiere Pro 2.0

I haven't really figured it out yet. Any ideas? It's really annoying to edit & sync dialogue when the audio plays back inconsistently on the timeline.

Sorry, nevermind. I don't want you guys to have to repeat yourselves. I just found an explanation at the bottom of this page.

Hmm. Although I do seem to meet all the recommended requirements, I'm still having problems. I guess I'll just reformat Windows XP and limit the amount of programs that start up and see how that goes.
