It's a 32/64 bit system...



No, it's not. It's either Win 7 32 bit or it's Win 7 64 bit if you don't know look it up. Don't confuse the applications with the OS. Biab is a 32 bit app that will run fine on Win 7 64 bit but not all 32 bit plugins will run properly if it's a 64 bit system. This means for example the old Roland VSC DXi will not run on a 64 bit system and there's others. That could be your problem. This is why we're asking specific questions. You're dealing with 3 things here: The OS, the programs ie Biab and Sonar and the plugins ie software synths and effects. All the drivers have to be correct for whatever the total picture is. You notice you don't see a ton of posts by people screaming about Biab crashing. I haven't had it do a hard crash on me in like 5-7 years or something and I've upgraded systems several times. Right now I'm running an Athlon Phenom 6 core, Win 7 64 bit, 4 gigs ram, 1TB hd, using a Sonic Cell hardware synth and interface. This is the info we need from you, don't just blow it off by saying you have "plenty of power".
And dig out that thumb drive, the first rule of music production software is keep it current with updates. Without knowing that all the updates are current, we can't help you.

You must have missed my reply:


"I mis-spoke. It's a 64 bit system, but I run both Sonar and BIAB in 32 bit. Thanks for the link to the update."



I am aware of the difference between an OS and a program, thank you. I merely asked if anyone could diagnose what my problem was. I didn't expect such a condescending reply. Most folks here are polite and genial. Guess you are the exception.




For the other people who actually tried to help, here are my system specs:



Intel Core i3-550 processor(4MB Cache, 3.20GHz)
4GB DDR3 SDRAM at 1333MHz - 4x1GB
750GB - SATA-II 3Gb/s 7200RPM, 16MB Cache HDD
Genuine Windows 7 Home Premium, 64bit, English




Thanks.
