troubleshooting
  timing issues : The advanced power-saving of some computers, especially certain laptops, can disrupt the high-resolution timer used in the Wizard Master Control Program. If you notice timing problems, try disabling the Use High-Res Timer menu item (version 2.007+) in the functions menu (see F above).
