Focusrite 2i2 crashing my PC when I start CbB

[Jonas Sorbz]

I am pulling my frigging hair out.  As soon as I startup CbB, my PC BSOD crashes with various messages.  It starts to scan the audio driver in a  little white box and when it gets to 48000, BOOM! it's dead!

 

I am using a MS Surface Pro 6 with a Focusrite 2i2 via USB.  It looks on startup that it is checking the built-in Realtek driver though.  I set Windows to use the 2i2 as its input and output device and CbB opens when I disconnect the 2i2.  I have used it for many projects so far with only a few issues but now I cannot do anything. Anyt advice would be greatly appreciated.

 

Cheers,

Jim

Disable the onboard audio in BIOS/UEFI if possible or in Windows device manager if not. 

Uninstall the Focusrite interface drivers, restart (not shut down) the computer then re-install the latest Focusrite driver (Focusrite Control) for your version of the 2i2

Thanks. I did all that and nothing works. It still crashes the PC  when I start up CbB.  I'm at a loss and really pissed off as I has some spontaneous recordings to do and now the inspiration is gone.

The 2i2 is working OK btw as all system sounds are coming through my speakers OK. It's just when I startup CbB.
