[DSP-10] DSP-10

[Ron Kolarik]

Almost any OS can be fine tuned to worked. I've fought the SDR wars
with XP and Win7 and mostly it boils down to motherboard (BIOS) and
turning off anything in OS "services" that isn't really needed, i.e. indexing,
wifi and finding software that doesn't want to phone home every 5 minutes.
Auto-updates and anti-virus are some of the worst offenders. Get a DPC
checker, http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml is a good one,
and find out what is hogging CPU cycles. I'm far from an expert on the subject
but this may be a good starting point.
