Installing the most recent video card drivers and de Asio4all drivers didn't do very much. It's still the same result. LatencyMon still predicts problems after 12 to 15 minutes. On the bright side, I've also ran the DPC latency checker software for the first time today, and that software told me I shouldn't have any problems with real-time streaming of audio. So I have high hopes.
