Sony Sound Forge 9 Locks up, pauses, then resumes.

In the middle of a function, such as Graphic EQ, Normalize, etc., Sound Forge pauses for over a minute, stuck on whatever %, then resumes after about 2 minutes. It's a new computer (to me), and this program has never done that to me on any other PC I've owned. Could this be some setting in the BIOS or Configurations?

Thanks!

I could not edit my post so I had to update with a new post:

I noticed in Task Manager that "winhlp32.exe" shows up while Sound Forge is hanging. If the program doesn't lock up, "winhlp32.exe" doesn't show up in Task Manager.

What OS are you running?

winhlp32.exe is the Microsoft Windows Help File viewer.

XP Pro. Yes, I know it's part of the Help Service, but it even shows up when I disable it in Services. That's another thing I don't understand.

Ok... I went and downloaded a trial version of the old Sound Forge 7... no pauses, no freezing. However, with Sound Forge 8, I get the same problems as with 9. So now the question is this - does anybody know of some fundamental differences from Sound Forge 7 to Sound Forge 8 & 9 that would cause these major hiccups? :thumbsup:

It seems to be my Anit-Virus' task scheduler. "Inotask.exe" - when I stop the service in Task Manager, Sound Forge 9e runs like it should. On the other hand, I have my A/V set to update it's signatures every day. I can't just disable it. Also - I have the exact program & settings on two other PCs in my house. This doesn't make sense. Anyone? Anything?

Thanks!
