I'm really stumped & frustrated now. My PC is a similar spec to yours Michael (but with a K6 processor) but my recording, even using this sox rec, still hangs after 7 mins and creates a 2gb wav file with 7 mins of music then 100 (approx) mins of d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d-d
I was beginning to accept that it might be a ram issue but you only have 256m like me.
Disk space seems irrelevant also as it does the same on all my partitions however much/little is free.
using a different window manager made only a marginal diff (a few extra seconds at most)
I can therefore record an album one track at a time (unless it's Pink Floyd :-) with an 8 min freak out ) but I would like to be able to leave it running for a whole side then come back and slice it up.
There must somewhere be an option or setting that I have set incorrectly but I'm blowed if I know what it is
I'd be most tempted to suspect the sound card. What kind is it?
Might be worthwhile to test your memory using one of these:

The second one requires a Win9x machine to make the bootable disk, but it appears to be a somewhat more thorough test.
