Gary another thing to try is booting up Band-in-a-Box in "Safe Mode". Safe mode instructs the program to launch using the factory default preference settings and ignore your preference settings. This allows you to test program operation with the default preference settings without altering your preference settings.

I copied the instructions from AudioTrack's +++ post +++ as I couldn't find anything about safe mode in the manual.

Note: You will be creating an empty file. The correct file name is important. Make sure your computer operating system is set up to allow you to see the file label and the file suffix.

1. Make sure Band-in-a-Box is not running
2. In the Preferences sub-folder, create a file named safemode.txt. It can be an empty file, it's only the file name that's important.
3. Start Band-in-a-Box. You will see a text message confirming that it is in "safe mode".
4. This forces the program to start using factory settings.
5. Test to see if the problem still occurs using this method.
6. Afterwards, you can close Band-in-a-Box and delete or rename the file.
