Hi everyone,
This is my first post here. I'm having some elementary problems with 
QuteCsound on WinowsXP and need your helps.

First, when I use the portaudio module, it results in taking more 
than 10 secs to run, regardless of the buffer size. Also, it often 
fails to run with following message: *** PortAudio: error: -9999: 
Unanticipated host error
Failed to initialise real time audio output ---When I use winmm module,
it runs smoothly most of the time. 

Besides that, every now and then it loses the copy/paste text 
capability once after running the code, until being restarted. I'm 
using a RAMdisk in which I've placed the Windows user Temp work area. 
I suspected that and disabled RAMdisk but made no difference.

Sorry if similar questions have been already posted before. Thanks in 
advance.

Not sure what this can be... Can you try different devices to see if
another works better?

This is well known. The widget.dll and virtual.dll (look inside your
csound installation directory) which use fltk mess with the clipboard.
If you are not using fltk, you can move these plugins to a different
place, or you can copy your complete plugin directory and set a new
OPCODEDIR from QuteCsound.

Cheers,
Andrés

Thanks Andres, 
Switching the audio device to another did make a differnce. With 
FireFace800, which has more than 20 playback channels, just choosing 
the portaudio output from the list would cause to crash. I disabled 
FF800 and tried a 2 channel USB audio (Virus TI) then there was no 
delay (but with error in getting device info.) I'll try installing 
another device and report if it makes a different result from FF800.

For the clipboard issue, removing these two plugins worked! 

Best regards,
Takahiko
