Anyone computer-tech-minded who can help me with this problem? My laptop died ("power issue"; currently in the shop) Saturday midway through a recording session, so I bought a desktop to use to make the 3 sound design and 1 music software review deadlines I have in the next week--yes, when it rains, it pours! :(. On Saturday, I installed a few programs I absolutely need, including Adobe Audition 2. I was playing an audio file in AA2 and opened up Netscape 7.2 (don't use any later edition because they don't have mail features) and the computer instantly crashed and rebooted. This happened every time I opened Netscape while playing a file in AA2, but it would not happen if a) I opened AA2 while Netscape was already open or b) opened Netscape while AA2 was open but *not* playing an audio file. Needing to focus on deadlines, I simply figured "must be a driver conflict, so don't do the above". So Sunday this workaround worked fine. Today, though, is a different matter. Today, AA2 will crash and reboot the computer immediately upon opening AA2. And this happens when no other program is open. So no matter what I do I can't open AA2 today, though yesterday I could (see above). It has happened consistently today and I *really* need to finish some editing for deadline #1 of 4 asap. So... does anyone have any ideas how I could fix this problem? Crapcleaner doesn't detect any issues. Adobe tech support have been a waste of my time in the past.
