It then seemed that people had more problems with Win7 & my Vista problems went away & only came back when I did upgrades. MTU worked very hard getting Hoster to work with all the different systems. The more "bells & whistles", the more tweaking that needs to be done. Bryant, have you turned off a lot of the Windows "processes" that run in the background? That's what we had to do to get Vista to run smoothly.
2 points - first I have to think that MTU has solved most problems because there have been so few posts on the Help Forum. That says to me that there only a few of us still having these crashes.
2nd - In the past, it was suggested to run a Registry Cleaner periodically, something I haven't done in a while. That is what straightened out my Vista a long time ago. Maybe time to do that again.

I understand what you're telling me Gerry, and really hope that MTU does come up with something like they usually do on beta 2 or 3.
Every possible un-needed background service is disabled. Brand new laptop, never goes on line except for windows 7 updates, and is completely updated as is all drivers, and I tried a number of older video drivers too. And 8 GB ram, video card is 1 GB video ram. Very few ppl are posting problems, but many only use hoster at home, and some might not even use extended screens, and some may just be having the luck of the draw (beating the randomness), and some may simply be not playing more than once or twice a month, at say, 60 to 70 songs a month may take a year for the random gremlin to attack. Recall I see nearly 500 singers every single week.
