I recently got a new computer and happily installed all my music software and had all music-playing programs playing midi and audio just fine - including audio and midi from BIAB, Sonar X1, wmp, streaming online, midi players, etc. Even had them all playing at once. My old computer specs are in my signature. The new are:

Dell Desktop PC W7-HomePrem-64 bit / Core i5 760 (2.8GHz) / 8GB DDR3 / 1 TB SATA / Realtek Audio / Roland Fantom X8 / BIAB 2011 (314) / Event 6 Pro Monitors

The Realtek Audio I'm now using is the stock "embedded" system. Marginal, but it all works (16 bit, 44,1kHz). Audio is MME, no ASIO. I have not yet installed my EMU 1616 PCI. Plan to do that after all is in control.

Now, after all was working, BIAB stopped outputting music - midi (MS Wavetable Synth and Coyote) and audio. It WILL output MIDI to my Roland hardware synth. (I did not try Coyote when "all" was working). Otherwise, BIAB functions perfectly in all regards. All other programs still output music fine, including RealBand and other PG Music products. And when checking the audio and midi settings in these other PGM programs, all looks normal.

So I have to think that either there is some W7 thing going on that blocks BIAB output, or something in BIAB is amiss. I have done a Return ALL to Factory Settings and fiddled with every relevant parameter in BIAB I could find. Also fiddled with system audio settings. Also let BIAB get audio settings from soundcard. Did so without a hiccup. Nothing has any effect.

Keep in mind that BIAB initially played MIDI and audio fine.

Any solutions or trouble-shooing suggestions? Thanks
