I’ve recently upgraded from vista to Win7 Ultimate and also from Traktor 3.3 to Traktor Pro.
Traktor seems to be crashing whilst I’m mixing, nothing obvious triggering it but every time I’ve had a mix the program freezes or completely restarts the laptop.
Not sure what I can do, would greatly appreciate any advice
seriously… a computer’s gotta be a complete load of !@#$ if the above steps don’t fix all your issues (obvious OS tweaks notwithstanding, you know…shut off wireless, auto updates, etc…) Every machine I’ve ever gigged with has been disk-wiped and purpose-configured for DJing… not a SINGLE crash EVER!
I am running Win 7 64 without a glitch…Could it be your soundcard? Traktor does not play well with WDM drivers (windows native), try and install asio4all if you are using the onboard soundcard.
@JesterNZDJ: The laptop id a Dell Inspiron P8600 2.4 GHz with 4GB Ram, 500 gb hard drive, so it’s got sufficient beans to deal with everything, my mate has the same laptop using 1.2.4 with no problems (he was having issues prior to using this version). I’ve downloaded 1.2.4 and that’s the plan now, I’ve got a fun weekend trying to sort this out…and hopefully my new Kontrol X1 will arrive too )
You’d have to really, really want to install 1.2.4 if you were to download from NI, as we’re on 1.2.6 and this is what the Service Center would want you to download.
And there really is no compelling reason to install 1.2.4 over 1.2.6. In fact 1.2.6 fixed some crash issues related to adding songs to playlists.
