PPrO,Cineform and New Dell Multicam problems.

I didn't mean to double post, but didn't see this forum, before I posted on the
hdv forum.
 A while back I posted here, asking for reccomendations on a new PC. We
are shooting more in HDV, and my old pc wasn't cutting it. We setteld on
a Dell XPS. Below is the description of the new Dell and our
continued problems.

<<Update and continued problem- We setteled on a Dell XPS model, but are
still having a problem with the multicam function. Our first real hdv project is
a 50 minute, 3 camera concert. The Dell is a duo 2.4 ghz with 4 gigs of ram, a
raid 0 comprised of 2 165 gig drives and a 250 gig c drive. The card is an
nvidia gforce 7900, and we're using a gateway 1080p monitor. We loaded PPro,
Encore and Cineform and nothing else. Then we transfered the entire concert
project to the new Dell. After some rendering, we opened the project, and the
edited section plays smooth and flawlessly. But when we opened up the multi cam
function (one with only 2 cameras), the playback was not smooth and in real
time. It was a lot better than my old Pc, but seemed to be playing slightly in
slo mo (although the audio was fine).After spending $2900 on a new PC, (not
including monitor), I was pretty bummed out. The obvious problem with the slow
multicam function will be trying to cut video to rythmic audio. We plan to call
Adobe today, and then Dell. Maybe we need a more powerfull chip, or a dual chip
set up...I don't know. Someone mentioned having different camera streams on
different drives, but I have no idea if that would solve the problem, or even
how to do that. Has anyone else experienced the same problem? Is anyone doing
multi cam succesfully with PPro? If so, what do we need to make this work.
