Using 10.42C during NAQP SSB I would get random "WL Sound performed an 
illegal operation and will be shut down" messages, maybe once every two hours. 
The 
system had to be warm booted to restore.

On top of that, every 15-20 minutes the mic audio would stop working after 
changing radio concentration from A to B or B to A. The function keys would 
only 
produce background noise when this happened. The system would have to be warm 
booted to restore.

With a P3-400 computer and the Preset Exchange file enabled, warm boots take 
4-5 minutes. I took an additional half hour off to disable all startup files 
and do a disk scan, but that didn't help.

This SNAFU cost me at least 200 QSO's and 20 mults. I doubt I was actually 
operating 8 of the 10 hours.

Any ideas?
