I'm running SS under XP Pro Graham.  Working really well, and this is on the recently built Athlon 1.4Ghz that would not record without "looping" on Win2K Pro.  Installing XP has completely sorted my problem!  The ATI AIW XP driver is out and working well.  I can now (at last) setup my SS machine to record all my proggys without worrying if they'll actually be recorded properly or not.  On Keith's last visit he wired in an "un-terminated" KAT5 module in the AV room - this is looped back up to the bedroom allowing me to watch SS output (VCDS DiVx's etc) on the AV room telly or projector and the bedroom telly.  Excellent.

You might be able to have the HA and MP3 stuff together, but the SS would defo need to be seperate otherwise you'll have dropped frames everywhere.
