Dear Gordon,
I called you last week before you went to the conference in L.A. regarding a
problem I'm now having with JAWS and Sonar 4 and 5.
To give you a brief overview, I am using an Alien Area 51 7700 with 3.8 Duel
cur processor, 3 Gb of hyper threading Ram, 256 video ram on a NVDIA GeForce
Go 6800 Ultra adaptor, duel 60 Gb serial ATA 7800 rpm hard in a SCSI RAID 0
array, and a SoundBlaster Audigy 2Z PCMCIA sound card for JAWS output with a
Tascam FW-1884 for my digital audio interface for Sonar. All on board sound
devices have been disabled and a 80 Gb partition has been setup for digital
audio only with Windows XP, Sonar Producer 4 and 5 and JAWS 6.2 only. I
have followed all recommended articles from CakeWalk and any other
optimizing articles I could find from Microsoft.
Now after working successfully for several month, JAWS will seem to cause
the audio to skip or hick-up once or twice and then JAWS will completely
leave the memorie and Sonar will often stop and sometimes crash.
Up until about 3 weeks ago, this has been an absolute dream machine working
almost flawlessly.
I have formatted the 80 Gb partition 7 time in the last week trying to
reconfigure the system back to the perfection I once new.
Freedom Scientific has no suggestions for the issue and the only way I can
now work is to unload JAWS before I go into record or playback.
Please give me any ideas you might have.
Take Care,
