For what it's worth I'll reply to myself on this: I've downloaded the Sumover rat code from http://mediatools.cs.ucl.ac.uk/nets/mmedia/wiki/SvnDev and compiled eveything using Visual Studio 8. One thing fails - the ratui link gets errors because the tk library contains X functions. Rather than spend any more time I replaced the the AG executables: rat.exe and ratmedia.exe, with the newly compiled versions.
The result is that the same problem exists - rat still freezes after a bit of time, it may however, be a bit better, but my perception is probably just colored by putting some time into the build. Would anyone have experience with external (USB or firewire) sound cards on 64-bit Windows? I see that the Creative SoundBlaster Live! 24-bit External has 64-bit drivers and for about $50 it might be worth a try.

The 64 windows drivers for the USB cameras (Creative and Logitech) I'm using are working great. My only problem is with the audio - PCI cards have given me nothing but grief. The onboard audio does work briefly, but after about a minute rat freezes. I can restart rat and it will work again for a short time. Would anyone have a new build of the Sumover rat that I can just drop in to replace the existing rat for AG 3.0.2 (build 1)? A 32 bit build should be just fine.
