We recommend closing down any background programmes when you run Muvizu - if you have Windows 7 or Vista closing Aero and the Side Bar can also increase performance:

Close Side Bar:
The following tutorial is pretty easy to follow:

Disable Windows Aero:
This is also a pretty decent tutorial:

Updating your Graphics card drivers to the latest version can also increase performance:

You can get the latest NVIDIA drivers from:

And the latest ATI drivers from:

You can also lower the resolution that Muvizu is running at by going to the "Prefs" menu in Muvizu - generally the lower the resolution the faster Muvizu will run.

You can also disable lighting by pressing F2, but you will probably want to turn it back on using F3 when you are dealing with your lights or making any recordings.

If you have any other questions or suggestions please let us know.

Take care,
