Can't record another track... is this because my sys. resour

Hi,
I just got Cakewalk, and my new Audiophile, and I'm trying to record my 11'th (audio) track. I arm the track and play, but at the end of the recording session, the recording doesn't show up in the right-hand side of the track view as usual. But, if I only record for a few seconds it does. I'm wondering if this is perhaps due to my sluggish computer... I have a 5 year old P3-500 with 128 Megs of Ram. My hard drive is not bad - 7200 RPM and 40 Gigs.
Is this likely to be the reason that I can't record the next track?
Another question, while I'm at it. Cakewalk won't let me set the driver bit depth to 24 bit - only to 16. My card is definately a 24 bit one, though. Is this perhaps because my regular sound card (an old Sound Blaster) is limitting things, even though I select which device to record at record time? Or, do I have to configure my Audiophile on it's own to produce 24 bit resolution?
Thanks a lot
