Timing problems / Crashes / Can't select drivers / No Inputs / Other weird problems:

Your soundcard/midi Interface drivers may be corrupt or outdated. Download and install the latest drivers from your soundcard manufacturer's website, or if you have the latest drivers, reinstall the ones that you have. Then, delete the files AUD.INI and TTSSEQ.INI located in your CAKEWALK folder on your hard drive. Then, under Options | Midi Devices, make sure that Midi Mapper and any Wave/Soft synth is not selected. Instead, select the Midi Synth for the internal sounds or the Midi Out/MPU401 if you have an external midi device. Next, under Options | Audio | Drivers, only select your Soundcard wave in and out, do not select any voice modems or other drivers.
