I've been looking into the problem, and found notes to the effect that if your sound setup has the soundcard running full-duplex, that will be th! e result. Run it half duplex to solve the problem... I've found a util called 'kickarts' which promises to disable arts in some sensible fashion (?) I'm gonna give that a whirl. My machine has been slower than heck... and artsd and kicker have been hogs. My old 486 with 16 megs of memory ran faster with 20 users. <cackles> Shutting down unneeded drivers is gonna be my next project. Being out of it for 5 years has been a real RipVanWinkle experience!
