Here's another one:
Iwill BD100
PII 400MHz
128MB RAM
Matrox Productiva G100
SoundBlaster 64 PCI
running Windows XP.

For me, the problem only occurs when I run Sonic Foundry's Sound Forge 4.5d or 4.5h. 
 

I don't have any other versions to test it with.

In addition, a computer at my work:
Pentium Pro 180 (!)
196MB RAM
running Win2K
(other specs I don't remember)

also exhibits the the problem ONLY when running Sound Forge.  Reinstalling Win2K 
helped for awhile, only to have the problem occur again a time later.  I reinstalled 
the OS again...  So far it works.

It always seemed to me to be more of a software problem rather than something directly 
linked to the hardware, but I could be wrong.
