Sony Vegas 8 = Crap!

Alright guys, good news and bad news. Good news is that I edited up Scene 3 of Alone. Bad news is that Sony Vegas screwed me over completely. For some reason, I can't render what I have so far to check out the progress. The program either crashes, freezes, or gives me an error message when I try. So here's whats gonna happen, today, I got Sony Vegas 9. I'm going to spend the rest of the night to try and re-edit scenes 1-3, even though I'm exhausted. I'll make an update tomorrow to let everyone know if I succeeded.
