Does anyone here use premier 6 for editing?

What was the source filetype from which you were editing? Was it AVI or something else? Also, what OS and which version of Premiere are you using?

When we were using Premiere 6.5 with Win2k, I did occasionally see Premere crash or simply quit for no apparent reason, but since switching to WinXP and Premiere Pro 1.5, I don't think we've seen any problems at all.

I tend to doubt that your problem is RAM related, unless you have a driver or some other apps running in the background and hogging RAM. One of our machines has only 256MB of RAM and while it's glacially slow sometimes, it's never been unstable or played video unreliably. On the other hand, it is a pretty fast P4 so the processor speed might make up for the lack of RAM.
