I purchased BIAB 2015 Plus Pak with the 49 Pak add-on download version from the PG website.Although the DL was extensive with a few time outs I was able to get things up and running in what I thought would be "back to normal" in my use of the program.It didn't take long for things to get a bit annoying Part 3 Not Found, access violation 00ac1555 in module,bbw.exe not found,an error occured while trying to replace the existing file failed;code 5 and a crash.A few more instr. parts (5,7,3,6) not found.Biab has been pretty solid for me so i'm sure with the updates and tech support I will get things back to normal and begin to enjoy the 2015 program as I have been with previous releases.I will be upgrading my OS to Win 7 32 in a few days with the help of a qualified tech which will require re-installation of BIAB and all of my software programs as well.Sample Tank has sound libraries that are sold separately and contain over 6gb of useable sounds,can these be used in BIAB with Sample Tank as a VSTI? I have noticed some different file extentions as well, BIAB instr. have TGS and some in SampleTank are STIP,STH,STW..are they all compatible with BIAB and RealBand?

a recent thread on "part not found" http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=277445#Post277445and from last year http://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=228361&page=8next, and in short: yes the ST add-ons (for $10 from eSoundz I assume??) will work with ST 2.5 Free; hence, they will work in BIAB (as long as ST works in BIAB). Finally, even shorter - don’t worry about all the different files with different extensions. The STI, STH, STW , and STIP are IK files. The .tgs files in the DX settings folder(s) in BB and RB are PG files for direct X stuff don’t worry about them and don’t muck with them.

Hi ,
Me too.
I was partly blaming my new SSD laptop, because I couldn't load in the complete program , because the drive only has 128 gigs. Also it's win 8.
Prior to that, I used to load the complete program real tracks etc onto the internal hard drive of my earlier pc's, never had a problem.
Anyway thanks to Larry, this missing hi q error stuff is finally making some sense.
I didn't understand what hi q files were. I thought they may have been a style track , some sort of midifile track, in which case I certainly didn't want to miss out on them, instead they are only to do with sound.
Mine I beleive weren't missing at all, I was receiving a message to say that they were, but I think the message that was being sent, was the actual error.
Somebody suggested clicking on the hi q track (in the song) that was missing, and reloading it, which I did, I then saved the demo song that I was receiving the error on, no more problem.
The way that Larry explained what a hi q track was in one of the posts, finally clicked in my brain, and so far so good, I think I have sorted my problem.
Anyway, I'm back to liking my new SSD laptop, I was getting so frustrated I nearly shelved it and was ready to try and get my old one repaired. I was driving my poor husband nuts with my constant whining. Haha unfortunately he knows less about computers than me.
Thanks Larry.
best wishes
