All my machines are painfully up to date (kind of assumed if you want to run Windows 7
).
I agree it's some resource contention . But what's really weird is if I kill Notation and start it again it's ok. And it only locks up when I open a file. I never attempt to play a sound. But It's definitely an AIM issue though.
There are tons of instant messengers these days I've just been too lazy to change.
Sorry for the tangent, I had totally forgotten AIM was sitting out thier hung on boot and never expect them to be coupled.
