V Station keeps crashing FL Studio

I've been fiddling with the demo for a few weeks with no problems. I purchased the full version from Digital Village, installed it and as a result FL Studio keeps crashing. Ain't life a b****. You keep everything legit for a more stable system and this nonsense happens.
Any suggestions? |

Same thing happens to me... 3.4 GHz hyperthreading, gig of ram, tons of disk space, and nice fast mobo and buses. Really nice laptop, but it crashes V-Station and Bass-Station, while my older PCs seem to have no problems at all. Weird.
Two things I always do now before adding a copy of V-Station: SAVE MY PROJECT. SAVE A NEW VERSION OF MY PROJECT TO BE SAFE.
Solutions I've found:
1. Keep opening the flp file or trying to add the instrument.. works usually by the 4th or 5th try.
2. Upgrade to the newest version; i noticed that the older version i had tended to really cause crashing more, about 70% more often actually.
3. Soundcard=?
Whether you pirated it or not you'll get the same error, so it's irrelevant... sorry that you wasted your money, but maybe you can get a refund or some tech feedback from the company at the least.
Cheers. |

Have you tried turning off hyperthreading if you have an intel?
It gives a lot of problems for producing, you can turn it off in the bios (hit del while booting) |

Okay I can do this if it'll help. Are there any drawbacks?

Nah, I don't want a refund. I'd still much rather be using a legit app than one that's been cracked by lord knows who. I may contact Novation and see what they say. |

| It might be a problem with the hyperthreading because most people I know seem to have no problems with their versions of it and they have AMD processors. |

I turned off hyperthreading and *touch wood* there hasn't been a crash since - I've tried various different things to check and nothing. Cheers guys, looks like this has solved the problem :) |

Dude.. hyperthreading is ESSENTIAL. You gotta have that on, always. It basically uses emulation to turn your single CPU into a dual, allowing two simultaneous operations to be performed. I'd rather have that and deal with opening v-station 4 times than have v-station load immediately with my processor loosing half its workpower. |

Sounds like I am. I spoke with Novation on the phone today, the guy hadn't even heard of the problem apparently, although I assured him I had found others with the same issue. I posted a comment on the FL forum added on to a topic someone had already started - someone with exactly the same problem. No solution.
This problem obviously doesn't stop me making music, but the irritating thing is I shouldn't have it at all. Not when it's someone else's issue to resolve. The guy on the FL forum was saying he was enduring it through v.1.2 of V Station as well.
Why the f*** do we bother eh? :mad: |
