I double-checked with the "depends" program. As I thought, no DLLs are loaded except from Windows and the Csound installation directory.

I also do not see any of these warning messages.

I suggest you check your PATH environment variable. You may have older DLLs lying around somewhere that are not compatible, e.g. an older PortAudio dll or something of that sort. You could try running Csound from the command line and set the PATH environment variable to nothing. It should still work if you run Csound from the installation or bin directory. I.e., first "set PATH=" and then "bin\csound examples\trapped.csd" or something.

Hope this helps,
Mike
