I’m using an old P4 laptop (1GB ram and xpsp3) and cubase 5.5.3 to do some live playing. Nothing taxing at all - a few hypersonic patches and one or two kontakt samples.
About every hour or so, Cubase locks up for about 5 seconds and then releases.
Any ideas what may be causing this? I’ve set up xp the way I normally do for DAWs that I build / install which has always worked successfully on other machines.
sounds like every hour or so something is kicking in and using resources that cubase needs. just what that may be is anyone’s guess. maybe a tad more ram would help but I’ve ran C6 on xp with 1gig (just for a giggles) and that worked fine!
