Much thanks to Tim, Neal, Jerry, Dudley, Bob, Frank, Jim, and others.
At Tim's (and Frank's) urging off-list, I have installed a new display
adaptor, a new IEEE 1394 adaptor, more RAM, and generally stripped
Windows down to only that needed to make it run the stuff I am trying
to run. Dropo

Well, frankly, 1GB isn't much memory these days. But you really
shouldn't be doing that much I/O to the p

That system is on the bottom end of what I would go with, especially
with integrated video and 1GB of memory. The video is stealing system
memory so I bet you have some memory swapping going on (which would
also be shown as you got improvements by giving priority to the
background functions).

OK, I have done all the hacking on XP that I am comfortable with. I
have cut the list of processes in half. No improvement.
Actually, I did one thing that helped slightly: I gave processes in
the background priority over foreground processes. That cut my dropout
rate in half.

The topic of audio dropouts on the SDR-1000 and Flex5000 comes up
frequently.
I use an SDR-1000. For a very long time, I wasn't able to move off of
V1.8.x of PowerSDR because V1.10x caused all SORTs of audio popping. I
was finally able to solve this after a very long series of
