I'm using Windows 7 x64 on an older computer.

If I open Preferences, then click the Audio tab, it crashes.

Debugging in Visual Studio reveals it's a null pointer dereference in qtaudio_wasapi.dll.

I can't upload the dump file or screenshot, and I don't have symbols installed on this computer.

Qt's audio system buggy. There's not much I can do about it. Sometimes just initializing it crashes for some people :/ (Ripcord waits until you try to view that tab in preferences before loading the audio system.)

I will probably replace it in the future.

Note that this isn't "it always crashes on Win 7 for everyone" -- it's pretty rare and doesn't matter which version of Windows you use. I'll update the title of this ticket.
