My advice was for trying to stop the problem, not trying to access the logs. I didn't think reverb was a Nyquist, either.

It's a perfectly reasonable suggestion, but all I was trying to say was that if the machine was very short of RAM then doing something like opening another window in Audacity probably wouldn't even display the window properly.

It would only mean opening a different one, not an extra. I did it when I had the same problem and fixed it.

My first move would be installing Audacity on the daughter machine and seeing if that solves the problem.
