When I launch the 64-bit version, program execution stops just past the splash screen resulting in a blank (white) window.

The 32-bit version runs just fine.

I'm running Windows 7 x64 on an older (but *very* stable/clean/fast) Intel i7 950 system with 16GB RAM, 250GB SSD system drive and NVIDIA graphics driver.

All my other audio programs such as Cubase, Sonar, Notion, Kontakt, etc. run flawlessly.

Cheers...

Build 601 did that. Make sure you have updated to the latest build, currently 604. If it still happens, there are two files you can delete to force a clean start - write back.

Hi Matt,

I tried builds 603 and 604. Both crashed.

Which two files should I delete?

Thanks for the help!

Anthony,

When you start BIAB 64, have your tried right-clicking on the file BBW64 and then under "Properties | Compatibility" setting "Run as administrator"? This is different from logging into Windows as Administrator.

The files that Matt was meaning are...

..."intrface.bbw" and "mysetup.dk" found in the “bb\Preferences” folder. It's the ultimate version of "return to factory settings". Rather than delete them, though, I suggest you just rename them to something like "intrface.bbw.old" and "mysetup.dk.old". This makes it easy to undelete them if needed.

Regards,
Noel

Hi Noel96,

Thanks for the suggestions. Unfortunately, neither worked.

I tried both together, and then each one individually, but without success.

Any other ideas?

Cheers...

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
