iMovies works with Umax J700 but cannot upload to tape

Can't Post

I have the following set-up:
Umax Supermac J700 with Sonnet Cresendo G3- 250 Mhz upgrade card
2 Gig internal SCSI drive ( about 800 meg left )
OS 9.04
Western Digital Firewire card
20 gig Western Digital Firewire Hard Drive
Canon Elura DV
iMovie (downloaded from Apple site)
152 Meg RAM ( about 60 meg allocated to iMovie )
All extensions turned off except the essentials
Rebuilt my desktop by pressing apple key and ctrl during boot-up
I am able to download from the Canon Elura and edit etc using the firewire Hard Drive.
But when I tried to upload to the Elura I got a message that say
either the HD was not fast enough or the process was interupted after a couple seconds of spotty upload. It did upload may be a second worth of good movies then things broke up.
Since I am able to download without dropped frames, I assume the reverse is also true. I am very sure that the firewire Hard Drive is capable of the bandwidth required.
I spot checked about 20 min of continous download and found no dropped frames ( by using the right and left arrow keys ).
I noticed that with the iMovies idle, there was a constant activities on the main drive ( cliking sound once a second ).
This may be culprit.
Do you have any suggestion what I can try ?.
Thanks in advance.
