Hello Jim,

Quote:

It has been a long time since i have used my BIAB 2008 but I am trying to get back into it but instead of Windows XP I am now using Windows 7 Home edition. I am having two problems.

1 - BIAB is locking up my entire PC so that I have to do a hard boot to get back to running anything. Is there some kind of fix or do I need to upgrade BIAB to run with Windows 7 Home? It is the only application that does this but then again it is by far the oldest application I am running.

2 - When it does work, before I minimize it and then try to go back to it, I get a series of echoes. Not just one but many. I have been looking at help and midi options but have not found anything to effect it.



There may be a few very minor compatibility considerations, due to (as you say) Windows 7 being released after BB2008. However, nothing like what you describe. Your problems sound to me like hardware or sound card driver issues. Are you using MME or ASIO audio drivers? Can you give us some details of your MIDI and Audio driver setup in Band-in-a-Box, as well as some basic computer info (e.g. sound card, processor, memory, latptop/desktop). Where do you have Band-in-a-Box installed? Did you upgrade to Windows 7 from XP, or did you purchase a new computer with Windows 7 pre-installed?
