I recently bought a refurbished Dell Latitude E 6510 for recording with my Onyx 1640i (003 serial version). I have been using it successfully with my old Acer Aspire 9410z for years but that laptop is getting a little long in the tooth so I wanted to get something a bit newer, faster etc that still ran Win 7 Pro 64 bit The Onyx 003 serial version only has drivers up through Win 7, which is fine with me. Problem is, I can get the machine to record and playback fine when I first boot up but come back 20-30 minutes later and now it won't playback through the mixer at all and any recordings made at this point will be un-synced. That is, the recording is pitched low and garbled. Re-boot and everything os OK again for a little while and then the problem comes up again. What is it about the Dell that the 1640i doesn't like? It's a great little laptop, especially for the $250 it cost through Newegg. I have read a few posts about compatibility issues with some laptops , including Dell. Did I just buy a computer that is not going to work with the 1640i? I am calling Mackie tomorrow. Ideas??
