BB2010 (292) and RB2010 (2b) are working fine on the USB. The USB has its program files copied and parked on my 2nd HD as backup.
I don’t really trust the USB. I want to install the 2010 as an upgrade package to my C:\BB – which is 2008.5.
Yesterday using the Band-in-a-Box setup.exe I used Option 2 for upgrade so that I could leave Drums and RealTracks on the USB.
Halfway through the install I was hit with a BSOD related to KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR – a whole page of info which I didn’t copy, something about a dump and I had to reboot.
That I can tell, most of the RB install never happened. XP Home SP2, 512 RAM, 1GB pagesys, lots of hard disk room but not for RDs and RTs on C. Avast and Spybot turned off during the process.

Any idea what happened? How should I clean this up? I would still like the BB and RB programs on my C Drive.

Thanks for any help - Ian

I would just try rebooting the machine and running the Installer again right overtop of whatever is there or not.

If you are using a laptop, make sure it is plugged into AC power...

Mac -
Ran the installer again and the process completed - thanks. No BSOD this time.
I should be able to direct the C Programs: BB, RB and PT to the X:\BB\Drums and RealTracks folders. Right? Even if the XX:\BB is an active, but unused, program? Or would I be better putting the Drums and Realtracks in root folders on X:\ as Drums, RealTracks?

You're okay directing BIAB to the RTracks and -Drums in their present locations on the outboard drive.

Thanks Ryszard. Anything else I should be aware of.
Ques - Builds to appropriate C Drive programs BUT what about RT and RD patches and updates? They would be able to be applied to the outboard drive location? Yes?

Yes, just direct the updater using the Browse button when you install.

Remember, the RealDrums and RealTracks folder name is the end of the string, so you simply direct it to X:\bb and not to the name of the folders.

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.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
