By crash, I assume the whole system crashes and you get the "blue screen of death".
According to a software engineer friend of mine at Microsoft, this is usually caused by a driver conflict with the OS. Driver conflicts are more common with the 64 bit OS. Drivers are written by the device manufacturers and there is often a considerable lag between the release of the new OS and the manufacturer's release of a new driver. Many manufacturers have not gotten around to writing 64 bit drivers. That is why I chose to stay with 32 bit Windows 7. Less problems. If you are using an external sound card, look for a driver update on the manufacturer's web page, and see if there is any discussion about Windows 7 64 bit issues. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Frank MacDonell Sent: Monday, May 17, 2010 7:49 PM To: Elecraft Subject: [Elecraft] Windows 7 Home Premium 64 Bit I have loaded HRD on a new laptop and now getting crashes.
