Maybe YOU can help

I've also noticed with the 4.06 upgrade that I'm getting an almost imperceptible 'hiccup' in a playing song - just long enough that the singer sometimes has time to turn around and glare at me, but then it starts up again. It doesn't skip anything, just momentarily hesitates and then continues. Weird. I'll have to pay attention and see if it is happening when I'm doing something specific. Could be when I'm deleting, but I don't think I deleted but one time during my last show and I noticed this hiccup 4-5 times over the course of 4 hours.

I did all my windows updates before I installed 4.06. I'm still having the tone go off when I get a negative search - if I go into control panel and shut it off, it shuts down ALL the audio. Is there something I need to do to fix this? It's not obvious when a song is playing (unless it's a slow, quiet song) but enough that I cringe when it happens.

I recall doing a lot of (registry?) changes when I first installed Hoster - is this something I need to redo since installing 4.06?

I remember having this same problem with version 2.?? I ended up finding the offending wave file and replacing it with a silent file I recorded in windows recorder. I named it ding.wav or whatever the file was, and just replaced it with the silent one.

Check to see if you have some other programs that are running in the background, that may be taking additional system memory resources. It might be that there is another program such as McAfee or Symantec anti virus, or WMP causing problems? Just Check Task Manager. (right click on the windows toolbar.)

You might want to run a registry cleaner too. Some of these registry cleaning utils are available for a small fee. Something like RegCure would work nicely. Make sure that you backup the registry file before cleaning and fixing....

I don't ever run anything else besides Hoster. Will run the registry cleaner. It had started to happen before I upgraded - not sure why. The ONLY thing we use that computer for is hosting. The only time it's connected to the internet is when I do upgrades (once). The only program we run is Hoster but I guess I'll drag it in today and set it up and make sure about that.
