Default live 7 problem

hi. im trying the ableton live for home recording after i couldnt solve my problems with cubase. but i kinda have the same problem, so i think its either my computer is not strong enough or im doing something wrong. i have problems with this program crashing or freezing in every 3-4 minutes. also during recording with or without playback of previous tracks, it jams for a tiny bit for multiple times so i get out of sync. it seems like my computers performance is not enough, but i have an avarage dual core 1.9 ghz with 1 gb ddr2 ram. if this is sufficient, could someone tell me how i can solve the performance issues? if its not, then what do i have to do to make some music? im really frustrated because i just got a new hardware interface and its been sitting there for 1 week.

please help!

thanks.

1 gig of RAM is not enough. You need to upgrade to at least 2 gig. The 1.9 dual-core is plenty. After that, make sure you have assigned enough buffers in preferences.

Yes i agree there is never enough RAM I'm running XP which only recognizes 3.37 Gigs but I have 4 Gigs installed. I'm currently researching new desktops which will come with Vista I'm not sure to go with 32bit or 64bit. I have not seen any problems running Live with my current setup.

Thanks

a. 32-bit Windows is limited to a maximum of 4GB and cannot see any pages above 4GB.

b. 64-bit Windows can use between 8GB and 128GB depending on SKU.
