Lol, i think i started this thread about ASIO, so howzabout ASIO, compadres?

Ok My experiences are not yours. When I was working albeit 5 years ago my team were responsible for so 40,000+ PCs several thousand printers and the like, 3000 wireless access points another 3000+ switches and routers over 350 sites. One thing we always did was to ensure all PCs were up to date both with virus detectors and an appropriate version of windows. there were only very few differences in the image. Only public facing machines were virtual.

We had a team of people just looking at windows updates and check the effects it had on present and future workings and the likely impact on the organisation.

Occasionally something does not work in the way we would all like. ASIO drivers and the like do go belly up. it is then we need to look around us and find why. Someone suggested reloading the drivers and this seems a fair solution.

I suggested a few day ago ensure any external device such as external sound cards and printers are left on when doing updates.

Where I live there are heaps of people in their 80's and 90's (yes they too are into computing and contacting the world) I recommend to them to let Windows update and let it take it's time to do so.

Not everyone has the same way of working nor will the same solution apply to all but I see it as a part of my life to share the knowledge and help others where I can.

As far as ASIO goes, today I deleted my drivers and reinstalled them and all was fine afterwards. I even noticed a Windows message to say the drivers for my sound card are now correct and functioning.

Sorry but I get upset when I see folk suggesting not accepting updates to either Windows or Antivirus this is based on experience more than faith.

Merry Christmas All

Tony. (We have already start Christmas festivities here in the heat.)
