cm crashes

[CShehadi@eworld.com]

Hello...

I'm an intermediate-level C programmer trying to do project in Lisp with
Common Music.

I'm using System 7.5.1 on a PowerMac 6100/AV with Midi Manager version 2.0.2.
 I'm using the minimum possible extensions to run Common Music.

I can get Common Music built on my machine using MCL 2.01 and it works ok for
a few hours but after a while it seems to get corrupted - or something.

I get unpredictable type 1 and type 3 crashes within 2 minutes of using
Common Music.  I can't get anything to work in Common Music for any extended
period of time.

Unfortunately, because I'm new to Common Music and Lisp I really don't know
where to start to solve this problem.  

Has anyone else had similar problems?

These are complete shots in the dark, but...

-Is there a chance that my hard disk driver could be conflicting with Common
Music?
I've run Norton Utilities and the disk checks out as ok - but there could
still be a conflict with the driver...or is this not possible?

-Could there be something in my code that corrupts Common Music?  Or is CM
usually pretty indestructible?

-Is there a "support file" that Common Music uses that might get corrupted
after a crash, that I can easily replace without having to rebuild the whole
program?

Any help or advice as to where to look for a solution would be appreciated...
