Part 2 to this is that SOUND FORGE IS USING AN INSANE AMOUNT
OF MEMORY. I had 128 Ram and with it not even doing anything, except
opening up a 650 MB Wav file (1 Hour Recording), it used it ALL UP and was
going into the SWAP FILE!

NOW, My computer people added another ton to give this machine 1/4 Gig Ram
and now I am going to "try it out" by recording again, to see if it did anything different

Still need help figuring out this monster problem

Jack,

In your system settings, are you letting Windows handle
your virtual memory, or are there user specified settings
being used? If you're using Win9x, check the settings like
this (if using, WinNT or 2000, I'm pretty sure the method
is similar):

1. Hit the "START" button.
2. Goto "SETTINGS", and click "CONTROL PANEL".
3. When the window pops up, double-click "SYSTEM".
4. "SYSTEM PROPERTIES" will open. Click the "PERFORMANCE"
tab.
5. Look to the bottom and click "VIRTUAL MEMORY".
6. Now look at the settings. Is Windows handling the
settings? Or have you (or someone else) specified something
else?

Check that out and write back here.
