Hi my name is Giles, I have been using Fruityloops for about six months and i have to say it one hell of a peice of software. I like to create anything from deep house to breakbeat and d&b. I Have recently bought a few vst plug-ins including absynth and atmosphere both of which are perfect for my taste in house music, the problem is my CPU is shooting through the roof and jaming the whole program up. I have a highish spec Dell Dimension pc with 2ghz pentium 3, 512 ram and 80 gig harddrive so this should be able to cope with all the software. Can anyone offer any suggestions on how to improve this. by the way i am not very computer literate so go easy on the jargon. thanks giles
