Was using it for a while now, and by chance just yesterday it crashed
once.

Just noticing if I start with a certain song it crashes every time. If I
play a different song first and then the other it doesn't crash.

One question (not to start a new thread). I set the VIC-II settings to
PAL, as as an European I am used 50Hz. But some SIDS insist on playing
in NTSC (60Hz). Cannot find if the VIC-II settings are ignored, or for
what reason some songs "rush through", others not.
