I had
that problem.  Since I am running NT, I increased the priority of Winamp, and I no longer have that problem unless the hard drive does some significant amount of I/O.

  Really?  I thought it was only
  because my personal pc has so little memory.   I run into that   behavior with explorer and playing mp3's at the same time.  This also   becomes a problem when burning a cd or changing formats, and even though I   leave it alone, sometimes it ends up a bit garbled.   How much memory do you have,
  EP?  If I remember right you are the gamer and bought the big huge system   for the pc games?

    Here's a stab in the dark:
    Windows still doesn't know how to
    gracefully handle software
    interrupts?
