Hi all,
My USB 2010 drive from pg is being recognised ok by my computer but I can't launch biab on it. Real band will work fine. I have done the setup as instructed in the readme but when I click on the bb icon on the USB drive nothing happens save for a band in a box icon appearing on the taskbar at bottom of monitor.
I think something has become corrupted somehow and I have tried installing biab over itself but still no luck. I created a new folder in the USB drive and as I downloaded the 2010 biab install file I installed it into the new folder and that would work ok, but of course its missing all the realtracks drums etc.
I understand there is a file in the bb folder to restore to factory settings if someone could kindly give me the name of that please.
I have tried the USB drive on another computer but same problem
If that don’t work I will probably have to copy over all the realtracks etc into the new biab folder on USB driver that does work.
Many thanks Paddy

I was having problems to with the usb drive. Sometimes it went missing or I would get a cycle of autostart and search on it or windows telling me that I had it into the wrong port etc. I ended up just dl everything to my hard drive and I think its alot better this way. Generates faster but, I had no choice. This link should help you to reset... http://www.pgmusic.com/techfaq17.htm#97

Hi Paddy,
If you see the icon on the toolbar maybe there is a dialog box behind your main window waiting for input from you. Try pressing the Alt+Tab keys to see if this is the case. There are a couple settings files, but the main one that you are thinking of is intrface.bbw.

Also try a single click on the icon in the taskbar...

Thanks all. I think I got it sorted. I did a new basic install of biab into a new folder on usb drive and then copied the files into the original bb folder on the usb drive. Whats great about biab too is it doesn't write to the windows registry therefore easier to solve problems. I think the realtracks write to it for uninstall purposes but both separate programs it seems working together. So far so good.  Paddy
