Girl Alone & my love/hate relationship with computers

Today was a bit of a roller-coaster ride to say the least... Yesterday morning Seiko came to my house to begin shooting Tengu. Shooting went well I think and I recorded about 25 minutes of footage (I only need about 3 minutes of this). So I was happy. Then, in the evening I met up with Richard Slater and got the remixed Scorpion Death Rock track. Thanks mate. So I got home and whacked the track onto GIRL ALONE and hey presto! We have ourselves a finished movie. So, it was with much joy that I fell asleep on Monday night.

Hello Tuesday! How quickly things can change. Day 2 of shooting Tengu was cancelled when Seiko got sick on the way over. I was disappointed but decided to use the free time productively and so I began the rendering process (saving the finished film) for GIRL ALONE...or so I thought. My PC refused to save the film and just froze. And a message box with a little yellow warning symbol kept popping up. The message was in Japanese and I had no idea what it was trying to tell me. So, after half a dozen failed attempts I gave up and took my grumpy face to work...anyway after cursing my PC's inadequacies and lamenting my lack of Japanese reading skill I tried again...I wasn't going to be beaten by a machine!

Tuesday evening came...In the evening I did a bit of online research and discovered that all my problems could be solved by simply increasing my computers virtual memory.
I did, and guess what? Yup. It saved. Took 90 minutes to render. So now I love my PC again. Phew.

Now I can concentrate on only Tengu.
