Re: Audacity transfer becomes erratic and stops recording

The blog doesn't say what device he is recording from, but the poster on Nabble had a USB device and USB recordings may often seize up.
Running too many programs and services usually causes gaps in non-USB recordings rather than complete seizure, but you should certainly try what Koz suggested (no need to minimise Audacity except as a last resort).
If the speed problem with the USB cassette player is consistent you can use Effect > Change Speed to correct it. See here for how to calculate the correction http://manual.audacityteam.org/o/man/ch ... ml#percent .
