That would be far cheaper to fix. How do I track it down?

Yes, a man just asked for directions.

C:\Windows\MEMORY.DMP

[In the Windows main directory - probably ] Open it with Notepad. It may take a while to load. If it's not too big, mail a copy to me.
THAT !

When I try to open it, I get "Access Denied".

Yes, I run the PC as an admin.

BTW, the file is 800MB
Because I said so.

Apparently it crashed while I was in Austin over the last few days, but the DIL restarted without copying the error message.
Because I said so.

Oh, yeah. The audio keeps going out. It resumes working again upon restart.

Right. Look here C:\Windows\Minidump.
The files in there should be small enough to send.
If you want to view them yourself try using this.

Flaky driver, but may just be a symptom of some other problem [ most likely memory related ].
