I'm running Cubase 5.01 and Reason 4.0 in Rewire mode on XP SP3 with a
Lynx TWO-C, an Intel quadcore and 4 GB of RAM. With Cubase I'm
constantly getting errors and crashes related to memory shortages but
they seem to be totally erratic, having little/nothing to do with what
I'm running in terms of rewire and the number of plug-ins, etc. Also,
eventually and without exception, if I'm using the program long enough
I'll get a C++ runtime error that will cause the whole program to
crash. I'm not sure whether the two are related. This system is
brand new and the PC works normally with other applications. Does
anyone had any useful advice for me vis a vis settings or something
that I can do other than buy a new DAW or OS? I do have a copy of
Vista but I haven't been able to load the Lynx drivers on it without
some sort of error. Thanks

Is 5.01 the top of that free-upgrade tree?

Are you running out of virtual memory? If so, that does sound like a
leak.

If only one program is crashing, it probably is buggy code. It could
also be bad memory. You might want to run a memory diagnostic just to
be sure but that is less likely if only one program has a crash. Also,
you might indicate if you are running in 32 or 64 bit mode.

Just say no to Vista. There is no reason to use that OS for what you
are doing.

You may want to go to add/remove programs, uninstall the Visual C++
libraries then reinstall the latest ones.

Personally, I've avoided SP3 like the plague (and Vista). Although I
don't use Cubase, I have had the error with other pgms in the past.

What´s the accused problem(s) with SP3???
Sorry, but I haven´t faced any problems with SP3, that I didn´t have
before - yes, that also applies to DAW software... So, I´m just curious. SP3
won´t turn XP to Vista, though. ;-) If it did, I could understand your point
of view.

Just my own view, and I didn't say anyone else was wrong to run it. The
less I have to install on my system, the happier I am. YMMV !!

All I'm saying is that my system isn't broken, and I don't need SP3 to fix
it.

Yes - the running out of memory and the C++ runtime error could very
well be related, or they could be separate issues. You should be
working with the Customer Support staff for Cubase on these errors so
that their software engineers can fix these bugs. Don't try to debug
Cubase's problems for them, unless it's easy to do.

prevent a particular security exploit from working while leaving the inherent
hole intact. This guarantees the need for more patches in the future!

Whatever the implementation method. They are not needed if your
system doesn't connect to The Internet. One of my systems is still
running Cool Edit on Windows95. It hasn't been "patched" in almost
a decade.
