I had this problem with BB 2016. It had been working fine, all of a sudden it would hang after starting up.
The program shows the splash screen then the main screen. But it does not respond to any mouse clicks or key strokes. I installed 2017 and it has the same behavior. BB 2017 did ask for the reg code. I entered it and it said that it was accepted. But still after that it doesn't respond to keystrokes or the mouse.

I did try BIAB 2015 from the usb drive and it started successfully as well as BIAB 2013.
I am running as administrator.

I am only using the realtek audio on this computer.
Real Band 2016 was working ok but it was hanging if I tried to load a biab file.
Real Band 2017 seems to be hanging at startup.
Sonar 8.5 works.


Any ideas?
