Thanks that helps..I restored back 2 restore points and got it to work but overall weird stuff has been happening..youtube not playing right..misc similar issues..I had read that recent windows updates had problems..i never know what to do when I see that because I was under the impression there would be issues if I didn`t update.
Should I turn automatic update off? If so how do I know which updates to install ? Should I uninstall recent updates ?
thanks

Issues again..I can record a track but cannot overdub..1st track records no problem...hit record again a new track opens but the curser vibrates at the beginning.
I forgot say..when I start the computer I get a message that says " TSUB Control Panel x Failed to Open Application Configuration File "
This has been going on since I installed the driver for this mixer many months ago..I didn`t try to fix it as everything seemed to be working.
anyone ?

Issues again.
And I still think you need to get local help in your town or city.

People have not been galloping to your assistance because nobody has any clear idea what's wrong. From your description you have a profoundly unstable machine. That's difficult to fix on a voluntary forum across multiple time zones.

The forum concept is "users helping each other." There is no help desk. If the elves and helpers have no idea, we can wait for another poster who solved similar issues to help you.

I'd suggest that you ask Allan and Heath about that, as it appears to an error relating to their software.

can anyone give me a little more insight into this ? this is a very heavy high end custom computer..i`m afraid I might drop it as I have to carry it down three sets of stairs to get it in my van
again it only messes up when I check the overdub box

What did Allan & Heath say about that error message: "TSUB Control Panel x Failed to Open Application Configuration File"
