I'm running into vsti issues after installing new usb drive version of RB. For the 2010 version, I had been using some vsti instruments (specifically Sampletank and Jamstix) with much success. When I originally installed these vsti's, I stored most of the vsti sample files etc. to the same usb drive that RB/BIAB were on, but did allow the .dll files to be installed to my internal "C:" drive under the commonly used C:/Program Files/Steinberg/VSTPlugins.

When I received BIAB 2011 on the new usb drive, I copied all of the vsti folders and files from the 2010 drive over to the 2011 drive. But When I run RB 2011 and open a song that used any of these vsti's, RB cannot pull the setup off the 2011 drive. In fact they're not even seeing the vsti instrument. They will not play properly from 2011 unless I also have the 2010 drive plugged into another usb slot. Obviously there seems to be something on the 2010 drive that the songs need to access in order to set up the vsti properly in each song. I thought maybe I had to run the vsti's install program once again from the 2011 drive, but I tried that with no better results. Can't seem to get my head around this one. Anyone else have this problem?

I suppose in retrospect it would have been better to install the vsti's to my internal drive. But even then, how would one deal with this situation if and when it is time to replace one's computer?
