oops, I am also using a 1.4 Ghz Athlon (Athlon XP 1600+) and 512M RAM.
The same problems with choppy CW I had on my previous PIII 450 MHz.
On old PIII made test with both speaker sidetone and keyed rig, last
tests on Athlon made with speaker sidetone only. I plan another lap of
tests with keyed rig soon as I find a minute (ASAP).

BTW TR Log runs here perfectly in DOSEMU, no problem, no jerky CW.
