VisualBoyAdvance-1.8.0-beta3 Recording Issue

I'm doing a LP Commentary on Final Fantasy II (DoS) but whenever I use the recorder built into the program my keyboard becomes very unresponsive. I've tried closing out of all other programs but no luck.

Anyone know how to remedy this issue? :confused:

Maybe your computer's not powerful enough to emulate and record at the same time? What CPU/RAM does it have? :p

Running Windows XP SP 1.
And it has a gig of RAM.
