Ok thats a beast lol.
Bet it cost a pretty penny. Congrats.

Gigabyte mainboards have a good rep.
Ok if bb is playing on start up and generating real traks and real drums etc etc…thats great.

The only thing i can think of is if wmp aint working maybe something has got corrupted in wmp dir. I would get a qualified pc tech to check the wmp installation and codecs etc. wmp works perfect here...also try another audio program that relies on wmp.

Re your spec my vision isnt the best. so if using partitioning ensure that partitioning hasnt affected wmp functioning. I dont partition.

Ps out of curiosity realband has a test audio performance utility in the menus thats a rough guide to how many traks any pc will do. Mebe try it sometime.
