Buffering possibly. What do you have selected. And what driver type ?

I was ready to go back to 7 but the 8b patch is much better.

Running Windows? Quite possibly you have allowed uninvited programs to run
on your machine and you should start with a "process viewer".

-- There's a free application, "Process Explorer" which tells you a
lot of processes currently running:

http://www.sysinternals.com/

Then there is a lot pages about Windows XP services, some of them must
be disabled, some of them may be disabled depending of the nature of
your PC ((mainly network processes) and you ought not touch two of
them, namely Remote Procedure Call (RPC) and I think Windows
Management Instrumentation and maybe one or two of the others.

With these two disabled, your Windows will fail to start alltogether.

But if you stop and disable, for instance "Themes" -- in case it's not
important to you to have a fancy look -- you will notice a certain
performance boost. For instance of all the services, I have only 12
running (a standalone, not-networked PC). Of course, your
configuration and needs will dictate which processes can be disabled
-- after reading about them, disable one by one, write it down and
check whether there's missing something you'd need. In such a case,
re-enable the service.

An another, slight boost of drive performances is achieved by to
typing at command line "diskperf -n" which switches off disk
performance counters.

There are many other "tweaks" for Windows, but you've got to free up
your processor's load as much as it goes.

Me, I'd stay at Sound Forge 6, really! [although I've noticed they
fixed some bugs in Sound Forge 8b].

If you are running XPPro and NTFS you need SP2
