Nicault - I am on a win 7 system also. There is a roll back installer where you downloaded the early release at the top of this forum thread. Simply download and install the roll back installer and will install the 2020 -1 release. I too am having issues installing the Early Release - as it crashes a video driver for some reason. I have not found a solution yet and I won't be installing the newest release until I can sort out my particular system issue. The crash does not appear to be generic in relation to a WIN 7 installation as other have installed it and it functions properly. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only loaded the EA version yesterday on my Win7 DAW so haven't had much time to test, but it did open OK and seemed to behave as expected.

Kurre Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) It's not like me to remember something so completely different to what is there now. So i can only think of one thing. It was written with another formulation in the beginning as i was one of the first persons to read about the new update. Edited April 14, 2020 by Kurre Correction.

Noel Borthwick Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 For the record Windows 7 is end of life and we do not have the resources to test or develop custom workarounds or hacks to keep CbB working on Win 7 anymore. Though we try to remain basically compatible, problems like this will continue to happen because nobody is testing it anymore. That said, if there is something fundamentally broken and we can find a cause we do try and address it when possible. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best regards. @Nicault what exactly is the problem you are having? If anyone on this thread is having a specific Win7 problem with the early access release please get in touch ASAP.

Noel Borthwick Posted April 20, 2020 Share Posted April 20, 2020 Just to clarify for this thread, the problem RBH was having has been resolved. He has a broken DirectX installation that causes even the Microsoft DirectX diagnostic tools (DXDiag) to crash. The new version of Cakewalk uses Direct2D for some drawing optimizations for the arranger UI and this is what triggers the problem on his PC. Normal Win7 systems are unaffected by this problem. 5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
