Pulling my hair out/J-bridge won't stay checked

I searched all I could on the topic and I think my problem is unique. I've spent 7+ hours on this and I'm thinking of installing 32-sonar just to use Waves.
I own Waves silver bundle and recently upgraded to Sonar 8.5 and built a New DAW to work in 64-bit. I bought the download of J-bridge.
My Waves plugins show up in Cakewalk plugin manager as expected, but when I click the checkbox "load using J-bridge wrapper" in the plugin properties, the checkbox does check, but If I click "OK" and re-open the same plugin's properties, the Box is unchecked. I've reinstalled waves and J-bridge in everyorder and combination I can think of, plus restarted the the computer at random steps. I've also tryed to get the plugin's to work using the J-bridge.eve and creating a waveshell outside of Sonar but that didn't work, the plugins show a error when I load. the Box "load using J-bridge wrapper" will not remain checked. the Waves plugins show up in my plugin menu under "J-bridged Waves" and I can see them all, but when I load one it says improperly installed. I think this is because i cannot keep the checkbox checked in plugin properties.  (Waves load in 32-bit fruity loops)
HELP! any Idea's at all?

    Steven, I don't even need J-Bridge to make Waves plugs work on Sonar 64. Did you try them with Bit Bridge that comes stock with Sonar? The only things I use J-Bridge for these days are a few 3rd party plugs I'm working on as a beta tester. Everything else that supposedly wouldn't work in Sonar 64 for me, works perfectly without J-Bridge and I use the Waves Mercury bundle here. No problems at all other than I have to open a plug 2 times to see the GUI...which is a common problem with Waves VST's even in 32 bit Sonar. Try it for the heck of it without J-Bridge and see if you can make them work. If you can't, I'm sure some of the folks here might be able to sort you out. I've never had a problem with my J-Bridge so I can't tell you where to even begin. Sorry. :(

    +1.  Use BitBridge.  I've got several Waves products and they all run fine under BitBridge.

    Wow- I got it working FINALLY last night, Thank God, I don't even know what I did, It just must have been the order in which I did something. Anyway, they are loading now- BUT- weird, now that you mention it, they aren't even using J-bridge! they must have finally decided to load with bit-bridge. anyone wanna buy J-bridge from me? ha.
