What problems?
A wide variety of problems from mere quirkiness to not working at all.
Are you using reasonably modern hardware and Windows
XP?
Yes. I upgrade my computer every 3 years.
Ah, that's your problem.
Yes I know. Unfortunately I have to make a living using the computer for
other things, like programming. Seems like everytime I get a Windows
upgrade or install much of anything, it breaks the music applications.
I've
gotten pretty good at getting things working though there have been times
where I've had to start over with a fresh install of everything.

Why is that a bad thing? Not commenting on your situation specifically,
Nick, but people are really adverse to fresh installs of windows and I
pretty much look at it as maintenance. It's been years since I've had the
same install on one of my own machines for more than six months. Windows in
particular degenerates as time passes.
