Re: SPMBT CRASHING
As Pyros says - try turning ALL sound off.
What graphics card do you have? - ther can be problems if you do not have a real DirectX compliant card, with real RAM and not using "shared" system RAM. As you have a laptop, you may have one of these?. Aditionally - check that you have the latest drivers for your card (laptop manufacturers website and/or gfx card manufacturer website).
If turning the sound off does not help (your laptop may have a sound card that cannot handle multiple MP3 streams, or you may have a problematic audio CODEC installed), then try running in windowed mode with the option to use Windows GDI graphics turned on instead of DirectX, especially if you have some sort of low end gfx card.
Laptops and games are generally a problematic match, unfortunately. Though my IBM R50e has no problems (sound or gfx) with WinSPMBT despite having low-end integrated gfx card and sound. Not a bad buy at £399 from Staples (Hint to UK buyers - check your local Staples office supply shop if looking for a PC or laptop, they sometimes have special offers like that in-store, and not mentioned on the Staples website).
Cheers
