Hello, Just a thought from my own experience. I replace my video card with one that has 1 gig of memory on board the video card itself. The lock ups using web browsers is not as often. Maybe with a better video card with more onboard memory then the one I am using, may even have better results. XP-Pro Intel Board Duel 2.4 Intel processor 4 gigs of system memory 1 gig ATI Graphic Card (Their are better choices) (This was given to me!) WD Raptor hard drives set as Raid Zero Its all Good and Lots of Fun! Without the bumps I would be sleeping! When I sleep, I am not Flexing! Ken K3YI

The Setup: New MSI P7N MoBo, Q6600, 2 Gig RAM - Running the FLEX 5000 twin receivers, the Processor humms along at 7 to 12%, DPC <100 Us, no spikes of any kind, all seems fine, then comes the evil IE! Any activity on the Internet, the DPC spikes up to 10,000 and the Flex locks up. Other programs As soon as the page is loaded, the stop-start is clicked and it once again starts running until I surf to another page. I use in graphic design (CS) programs that also lock it up.Try a contest, looking up calls and trying to listen. I been a Flexer for 3 years and realize DPC have been an issue with the 1000 and now the 5000 - but not very well addressed. The Power SDR program is the only program that locks up, and I have a lot of high demand programs that could, I would love a fix if only temporary, but a lot of users are having DPC Lockups.. They may not know why or what they are, just the program locks up and they have to restart the program. I have heard others on the air thinking of buying the products, but don't because of the lock up issues. No doubt this has and will continue to hurt the SDR concept and sales until a fix is found. Isn't their a routine that could run in the background to monitor for the lockup and reset the program? Any fixes you can think of for this madness? -- Jim Menefee James W. Menefee, Jr. P.A.
