Jim, I don't think it's your computer, and you have enough RAM. At least, enough for all prior versions of BIAB before 64-bit as we have experience with them. Bring up the Windows Task Manager in a small window and see if the CPU or RAM usage pegs the meter for a few seconds in the count-off. If it does, turn off Fast Generation in Options, Preferences, RealTracks and test again. But I really don't think that's what is happening here.

Funkycornwall has distortion with the new 64-bit BIAB, and so do a few others, but I'm not seeing that it's the same as yours, nor that theirs is all the same as each other. Send PG Music the video and let's see what they say. This will all shake out but right now it's puzzling.
