I have Premiere pro 2.0 up and running and it works for a little while when I first start it up, but in the lower right hand corner there is a meter that says "Generating Peak File" and when the meter fills, premiere freezes. I can use other programs, but premiere locks up. anyone know what's happening or what the Peak File is?

The Peak file is what Premiere Pro uses to generate the waveform. Doublecheck where you put all of your scratch files and make sure the drive is not anywhere near full. Also defragment it now and then.

i have 77 GB free and a freshly defragged hard drive, but same problem. its only premiere that locks up. i have the full production studio and don't have a problem with any of the other programs. they will even run when premeire is frozen. any other ideas for me?

Then there may be a problem with some of your media. Move the media files to a different directory and then start Premiere Pro. When you open the project, just tell it where the first clip is and not all of the rest. Then just start linking them back in one at a time until the Peak file gives you trouble again.
Or, perhaps it would be better to start a new project and import every media file in one at a time.
