I may be misunderstanding the full details of what you did on your laptop, it sounds like you did NOT install Sampletank?

Before we address your HI-q issue you will need to fully install at least the free Sampletank 2.5, if not your commercial one if you own it, on the laptop, as well as desktop.

If you have installed, well then it's a matter of FINDING where the VSTi was installed (it is there).

Unlike some VSTs and VSTi's you can’t simply copy the " SampleTank2.x.dll" (the VSTi) to your Laptop and expect it to work: it won’t. Because it will look for other information (.vpa files, etc.) at launch that information is only there if program has been installed and is correct/authorized.

When you install SampleTank 2 it installs the DXi's to it's directory then updates registry for DXIs. Normally it ASKS you where you want the VST located or may go to your "uber" default VST/VSTi location. However, there really is no "standard" location - I can't tell you where to look because I don’t remember and - I have very NON standard installs on completely different drives than "C")

Some programs "default to" c:\Program Files (86)\VST's

Some programs "default to" c:\Program Files (86)\VstPlugIns

Some default to c:\Program Files (86)\ Steinberg\

Some just install to last place you installed OTHER VST's


But wherever it is on your Desktop install, it will (should) be be in the same place on your Laptop install




Once SampleTank is properly installed then you need to have BIAB (and RB) go find it - see this thread: (since BIAB and RB only "find" DX and DXi's by default - you have to tell BIAB/RB where each VST/VSTI is that you want to use)
