That's too bad and very annoying. The only thing I can think of Am is to install each program by itself and give it a while and play with it to see if you can "force" it to error out like this again. With any luck you can narrow it down quickly and find the offending program.

The only two programs you have listed on your machine that I don't have installed on mine are Opera and the Via 4 in one drivers. So maybe you can try installing everything else but those two and see how it runs for a while then I'd try Opera next and test it...........if it's still running fine after that you'll have your culprit without having installed it. Oh wait, I'm using an AWE 64 SB soundcard, not the Live series.....but I'm willing to bet that's not the problem.......SB is always good about their drivers and updates and I've never had a problem with any SB product including the 33.8 modemblaster I owned years back.
