I too have encountered the same problem on my laptop running Vista. The latest version of the registered version of Golden Records (GR) normally crashes at the beginning of a recording, just after I have dropped the stylus in the blank area at the beginning of a vinyl LP track to be converted and I have pressed the "Record" button. GR then indicates that it is "Waiting For Audio" and the crash occurs before I see the "Recording" message from GR. I briefly see a message to submit a report to NCH Software, but then Vista takes over and indicates that it is closing the prograrm and that is it. I restart GR and I can normally record another two or three tracks before GR crashes again. I have also had a crash happen very infrequently at the end of a track when it is converting the resulting file; and like you, experienced that GR did properly convert the new .wav file, despite the "crash" when I relaunched GR.
I have personally attributed this to an "enhanced" Vista feature and I figure that the NCH Software folks will get to the bottom of it in a future update and correct some incompatibility between GR and Vista. Having been one of the first users of Vista, I have encountered such odd behavior before from a variety of software applications and usually the problem lies with a Vista incompatibility which is subsequently corrected.
I hope the problem is soon resolved because it is annoying, though thankfully, not catastrophic. Have a great day.

Thanks, Phil, for the input. I also run Vista. Did your GR ever record like it is supposed to? Mine did for about 10 consecutive cassettes when I first bought it. Then it started this problem. Hopefully NCH will get this figured out.

I recently purchased the Golden Records program. It was working fine for several days but now it's closing itself during a recording. It flashes a message before it closes but it's only on the screen for a fraction of a second so I can't read it. Any ideas? The opening screen shows that I'm using a registered version.
I, too have that problem. But it stays on long enough to tell me that the program had encountered a problem and had to shut down. I can restart it and it will convert and normalize the last song. But it screws up the number order and does not allow me to record but two or three songs at a time.
Possible answer for recording closing and crash questions

Hi Erosman,
Thank You for your input. As far as the records go, I had the same problem with them. Also My tapes I am recording are tapes that have been used in the last year. These are accompianment tapes that we use for my choir.My machine is also newer-not new,but a good one .
But you do bring a good point to the table. My question then is why after some songs and not others?Is the time in between songs not uniform? SO many variables.
But you are right, TPB are working on a solution as we speak.
Just food for thought.
