FYI to all reading this thread: The 4GB RAM issue only appears to affect playback. The problem is that the audio will break up/lose sync after a period of time. This only applies, of course, if you actually listen to the output of the SDR.
If you select another sound card in the Output selection in NaP3, it will be fine. You really don't need 192kHz for playback, since the widest filter is 10kHz. So any sound card will do just fine, including a built in one. You can still select the E-MU for Input and use 192kHz sampling for input. Therefore, you don't need to give up your extra RAM. I have updated my system requirements page with this info... http://www.telepostinc.com/sysrequirements.html 73, Larry N8LP KQ8M wrote > > I have 16 Gb ram.
