I just jumped on the computer from a break and saw your message, yet don't
see where anyone answered. Here is an observation - I remember that CS4, (a
32-bit application "optimized" for 64-bit, according to Adobe) crashed a lot
for me on a 32-bit Windows. When I changed to 64-bit Windows I seem to
recall that the crashes ceased, nevertheless, I am wondering whether that
32-bit vs. 64-bit phenomenon affected your copying task (I have never used
"collect & copy" or whatever it is called). You are right, something like
that shouldn't take "hours and hours".
One suggestion is to make sure you are using several drives because if the
source and destination drives are the same, there will be a lot of thrashing
that can cost scads of time. By using separate drives the heads remain on
the respective file, minimizing thrashing.

Subject: [AP] Finding/saving/collecting all project files- issues!!
Hello all,
my husband just finished his 1st project with both a new pc & an upgrade to
CS4. it's taking some getting used to- both the CS4 & Win7-
but we made it thru. I am the "computer geek" & he is the "filmmaker/editor"
FYI. one of our last tasks was to archive the project as a complete set of
all related files. I found -under project manager- where we can "collect &
copy files (not exact wording- i'm not at the editing pc right now). i went
thru all the options & feel like i set it up correctly. BUT- the project is
a 4-min video, total size appears to be 5.63 GB.and it took hours & hours to
do this task- and crashed/froze at least once during. This does not seem
right.We have a brand-new Dell studio xps 9000, 8 gb ram, plenty of
processor power (i can't remember now exactly-but one of the intelCore i7 or
i9 processors, add-in nvidia card,etc.I'm 100% sure there's enough power in
this machine. we were not running any other programs & it has never been
connected online. so- any thoughts on this? when i said hours- it was at
least 4 hours- then we went to bed & let it continue overnight.
this cannot be right, can it?
