I just installed Sonar 3 and the first time that i run it there is a audio hardware test. Onboard is some nforce thing but im using sound blaster live. So it runs the test on the nforce hardware and after a few tests it restarts my computer and then i have to start again. It is called "waveprofiler"

Im guessing this is where it crashes. Is there any way to skip this, there is a skip button but that crashes it too

Even changing this command line?
"C:\Program Files\Cakewalk\SONAR 3 Producer Edition\Sonarpdr.exe"

Did a quick google and found:

They're not solutions, but it seems you aren't alone ... except their PCs don't crash.

Try turning off onboard sound in your CMOS if your motherboard allows it, they may get around the testing of it.

Looking in the CMOS now and there isnt a single option for the onboard sound

uninstall the nforce drivers dont reboot, run the tests before windows redetects it?
worth a shot

^nup, thanks tho :)

Bump?
