Hi,

I posted a week or so ago about my Laptop running my audio apps very slowly
- taking 20 min to load Logic.

The problem is solved -- I discovered using Task Manager that a Toshiba
utility (thokey.exe) was using 99 - 100% of CPU. This caused everything to
run like molasses when I launched my ASIO apps. Simply removing this file
from Windows/system32 fixed the problem. This indispensible utility is for
launching apps using keyboard shortcuts (eg Fn key +E for Eudora). Can't
tell you how glad Tosh made that facility available to me. Luckily I didn't
have much hair left to tear out.

Anyway the system is now working well as far as Logic on ASIO with
Hammerfall DSP Cardbus/multiface combo. 

Regards,
M
