[quote quote="magic":1gzvu0fb]A few more tips for win XP:

* set the visual settings in system set up to
"optimal performance". note that this this will disable most user defined visual settings, but if are anything like me, you could not care less for that. this helps a bit.

* in system set up under > "advanced options" >"advanced options" (again):

make sure time processing planing is set to "programs" and not "background services"
and that memory usage is set to "programs" and not "system cache".

click on the "virtual memory"> change tab and check the set memory size. you have a minimal value, a recommended value and a maximum value. usually by default this is set to recommended value. If you ever have gotten a message while working that not enough virtual memory is available anymore, that`s where your problem is. click "user defined size" and type in the maximal allowed value.[/quote:1gzvu0fb]

this is not the case for music production
