Tracey, I remember similar crashes when using K1K on Windows Millennium,
but have not seen them since I migrated to XP. What operating system are
you using?
What speech engine are you using in K1K?
If you have Microsoft Speech API 3.0 in control panel Add/Remove, you
also may have another source of instability.
Lastly, if the file you are working on has very long lines with very long
pseudowords full of junk chars, K1K can also crash.

Guido,
I discussed it at length with Kurzweil some time ago, but they never
resolved it. It happens on every file, sometimes right away, sometimes
after a while, but inevitably.
I have version 7, if it matters.
Some day I'll buy a new computer, and maybe it'll go away.
