Here is how I made it work here:

The same thing happened here when my USB drive arrived. Updates did not fix it.

BUT -- Since I usually run external hardware MIDI synths here, I tried temporarily invoking the "Use Dxi" option and ran a song once using the VSC DXi.

After that I closed down BiaB completely, then restarted it and loaded another song. Checked that it was still working properly with the VSC DXi, then opened the MIDI/Audio window from the Opts menu again and UNchecked "Use DXi". Reverting to the External MIDI synth again.

After doing that once, the program now plays all tracks as it should and there has been no reason to revisit that little dance again.

There is another way, apparently, if you don't have the VSC DXi installed, this from PGMusic's Andrew in another recent thread:

Hi,

This problem seems to happen on some specific XP systems, if you haven't ever used DX, and we're working on fixing it. In the mean-time, you could fix it by disabling fast generation in the RealTracks Settings, however there is a better solution - one thing you could do is use a DXi/VSTi synth for your MIDI playback. If you are using a hardware synth and don't want to use a DXi, you can instead do this:

-Audio menu-Drivers/settings
-select 'use realtime plugins' and press Edit.
-select any plugin, like PG Peak Limit (select bypass if you don't actually want to use the plugin).
-close the window and you shouldn't have that problem anymore.

As you can see, this is a known bug that they are working on, meanwhile we have at least two possible solutions that should get things up and running for you.
