My laptop: Fuck You Apple! - GoFuckYourself.com

I've been wondering why the fuck I can't run After Effects on my new laptop.

It's an HP Pavilion -something, came with Vista. Naturally, I formatted the HDD and installed XP on it.

When I try to run After Effects, it freezes.

Thing is that it needs QuickTime.

Whenever I try to install quicktime, it freezes

itunes - same shit

Now I'm tied to Sony Vegas which kinda sucks

anyone know any solution to this? When I run quicktime player it just gives me an error.

This happens ONLY to iTunes and Quicktime. ALL OTHER apps run fine.

Only use certified systems for videoediting, or you will most likely get errors like this

Certified? How Adobe After Effects isn't certified?

It's some kind of conflict because of the XP installation instead of Vista... I think.

Machete_ · 01-17-2009, 12:01 PM

and use quicktime version 7.4.5

Came with Vista and you formatted/installed XP.

I guarantee you fucked up somewhere if it won't even install itunes/quicktime.

What is the error btw?

I know aftereffect don't require one of their certified board-sets, but you get less errors if you stick to those.

There can be a million of reasons for the problem you have.

- First of all make sure you use quicktime version 7.4.5
- Make sure your DirectX is installed and updated
- Update the Displaydriver

What does the errorlog tell you?

Tell me the exact model of Pavilion you have

Great, now Apple gets the blame for shitty Windows. Just use Microsofts' versions of QT and Itunes...what is that, Zune?

Ethersync · 01-17-2009, 01:12 PM

I would have just left Vista on it...
