MIDI Device Failure: "The following Midi Port(s) could not be enabled" [solved]

[kday]

I tried selecting the Akai MPK249 MIDI Controller in the MIDI Devices Inputs and Outputs page in Preferences and I got this message

MIDI Device Failure

"The following Midi Port(s) could not be enabled"

"The ports will remain unchecked in MIDI Device preferences"

"There is not enough memory available"

Indicating that the memory is Full, I never got this message before, especially for a MIDI controller.

Anybody know what this message means ? 

Thanks

It's Microsoft's cryptic way of telling you the MIDI device is open by another application.

Oh, wow! That was a wild roller-coaster!  I cutoff other equipment and it worked! No more Cakewalk brain freeze!
