Hi all,
I'm going to re-hash an old problem with DK64 that surfaced on here about a year ago. There didn't seem to be any solid resolution to the problem, and I've begun to experience it myself, so I'll pose the problem again and hopefully evoke some
new responses from you all. (Something other than shut up and go to hell would be great!)

"This is the second time when I had to start playing DK again from the start because after many-many saving PJ64 gets bored and sends a message: "SP DMA READ: could not fit copy in memory segement". This cute error means that my save state becomes unusable and I can't go on. I use Win98SE and PJ1.5 . (Don't tell me I should have used WinXP!). What is important is that this error occurs only with DK64. But why???"
Yeah, why, indeed! I'm really getting into the game, just about to finish Gloomy Galleon when up pops the same message for me. Frustrating! I did find that by setting Options > Configure RSP Plugin... > send Audio Lists to Audio Plugin
that I am still able to play the game, but the sound comes out garbled. (An annoying rapid beep). Sure I could just play with the sound down, I suppose, but some sounds are important to the game (such as hearing the banana fairies). So any further help would be appreciated.
(Another note: I am able to get relatively good sound if I use the
"Azimer's Audio v0.30 (Old Driver)" plugin with "send Audio Lists to Audio Plugin" checked, but I still can't load my saved game, as it just crashes.)
