Hey Chico,

Interesting problem. I wonder if the program could be causing a loop...causing the CPU to grind away at a set of instructions it can't complete...And it just keeps workin' harder at it.

I checked the GVOX website for this problem...nothing. Under the download section there are patches for the various versions. You might want to make sure the program is up-to-date.

Are you familiar with Task Manager (press Ctrl-Shift-Esc together)(use your left hand...thumb on Ctrl, 2nd finger on Shift, 3rd finger on Esc)? This utility tool shows all processes running and allows you to view things like Page Faults, CPU Time, Peak Mem Usage, etc (if you have the columns checked for viewing). You can also set the priority of a process here (right-click on a process running and lower the priority). I doubt if that's it but just a thought. It would be interesting to see if one of the columns I mentioned above shows the number increasing exponentially when the program is running. The programmers would want to hear about that.
