Howdy Friends, After my xp bit the dust and not worth fixing,  couple e-mails 
from Bill, and see now that I'm going to need to upgrade my caketalking version 
to 8.8 in order to run on windows 7 which is ok, but pretty sure my win 7 
machine is a 64 bit computer so thinking that I may need to buy a new copy of 
sonar as well, since believe first version in 2009 that i have is a 32 bit.
    Does anyone know if the version i can currently buy from dancing dots is 
most current with caketalking 8.8, as hoping to avoid some of the updating and 
stuff needed to do previously in order to bring sonar 8.0 up to 8.53? Hoping 
there is a sonar 8.53 64 bit so I will be set.
As it is, one crash of my xp machine is going to be possibly expensive and a 
major hastle configuring caketalking so hoping to find the path of least 
resistance. at least I already had the win 7 machine or would have just tried 
to get a "like new" win xp computer. the old caketalking 8.0 worked plenty good 
for me and was just perfect til the crash, so hoping to get back to that and 
after only a few days, really missing my recording setup.
obviously, at this point will do whatever is required, but looking for least 
expensive and least hastle as i can since not a computer literate person....
   In closing, cant thank those on this list enough for all your help, 
including Bill and DJX. Hoping to purchase whatever updates necessary today but 
webpage a little confusing and will probably call office first.
As it is, turns out caketalking 8.8 is able to work with jaws 15 and not even 
on their web page, so not taking any chances of buying anything else til I am 
sure it will work together. at least believe my focusrite scarlet 2 should work 
on windows 7. Sincerely, Dave
