I recently purchased a new desktop computer and laptop computer. Both are running Windows 10. I also purchased the latest version of Reaper ( I have used Reaper for a few years, but needed to pay for the latest upgrade). My HD500 is working fine standalone with both the laptop and desktop, but both will crash within a few minutes (blue screen of death) if I open Reaper and begin recording. Reaper seems to work ok if I use a digital mixer for a sound input to reaper (digital mixer uses a driver other than the POD asio driver).
I have the latest downloads of all the HD500 driver, firmware, editor, etc. and have the latest version of Reaper. I experienced a few crashes with my older computers and previous versions of Reaper, but it was still workable. With the new computers and new version of Reaper, it crashes within a few minutes, making it totally unusable.
I believe others have experienced this problem, but haven't found where there is a definitive solution. Any suggestions on what to look for? If this is now unique to me, I will turn in a repair ticket.
