After a lot of thought, I purchased an M-Audio Delta 1010 soundcard for my PC. I have a couple of problems:

1) When the drivers are installed Cubase SX, upon startup, will do an Audio Sync Test but the test fails as there are lots of sync errors. I've done the usual stuff I did with previous soundcards that worked fine, but I get the same sync errors.

2) I don't know if this one is linked to 1), but after this test it will try to run Cubase without any of the audio settings, but SX will crash as soon as I try to open any menu items (ie, New Project, etc). Can't remember the crash text, but it will close down Cubase and do that Win XP "Send Error Report/Don't Send Error Report" thing.

I believe one or two members of this forum own a 1010, so if anyone could help me out, that would be great :-)

Cheers,
Peter

I don't think you use those Steinberg sync tests with real ASIO 
drivers from the pro audio card vendor (e.g. M-Audio, RME, etc.)
those sync tests are only for the Steinberg ASIO Direct-X or ASIO-MME
wrapper drivers, which suck and nobody uses them.  They are used
only when you have cheap soundblaster or something like that
which doesn't have native ASIO drivers and need the ASIO wrapper.

skip those tests.  you will configure Cubase SX to use the
M-Audio Delta 1010 ASIO drivers in the device panel in SX.

now back to Fairlight ...
