 +The problems may all be related to excessive computer resource use.  I recently had a similar problem with a non Ham situation and resolved it by doubling the RAM.
 +
 +One thing to check is the CPU usage and memory usage using the Task Manager in Windows. This can give you an idea of what software is tying up the computer resources at any moment. If ther CPU usage is stuck on 100% then some programmes won't get a look in.
 +
 +The other thing to remember if you are using Firefox is that the longer Firefox remains open the more resources it eats up. It's advisable to shut it down and restart it every now and again if it's being heavily used (particularly where there might be a RAM issue).

 +I am not an Omni VII owner (I own a K3), but I have followed this group with interest since its inception. I am surprised that during
 +this discussion nobody has mentioned this little gem of a program:
 +
 +http://​www.thesycon.de/​deu/​latency_check.shtml
 +
 +It is used to check a computer'​s "​deferred procedure call latency",​ which is a critical factor for good real time audio and video
 +streaming performance. The author also suggests using the device manager to search for offending device drivers while monitoring. Folks with TRIP problems would also be wise to join the LP-PAN Yahoo group as there is plenty of advice there on how to clean up computers for good audio performance.
