    Whoa! That doesn’t sound good at all.
    The video driver should certainly not be able to make it crash.

    Have you tried deleting the Breakaway INI file to start fresh?

    If you’re using Virtualization, the file may be hard to find — search your Users folder for "breakaway.ini" and you should find it somewhere in the VirtualStore. Just delete it — Breakaway will create a new one the next time you start.

    Found it, fixed it!

    I believe in my case, the ini file was or was inside c:program filesbreakawayvaclcskd.inf

    Now that it’s back, there’s still a lot of pop and crackle displaying waveforms and meters. With larger GUI size, more noise, and it’s visible in the scope in the input wave form (processor front end?).

    I don’t recall this being the case before, as I’d often open the Breakaway window to the limit of its size with no effect. I can run it minimized and the sound quality is the best so far of all the RC’s.

    What can I try to isolate the problem with the video and noise?

    I think that has to be a video card / video driver related issue. Internally, Breakaway’s graphics run at normal priority, while the audio engine runs at higher priority (either time critical or realtime), so they shouldn’t be able to affect each other.

    Try running the DPC latency checker and see if it can help you figure out which driver is causing the glitches.

    Best regards,
