Presonus Audiobox 44VSL - More Driver Choices after Driver Update

Posted this on the Presonus forum and got no responses so will try it here. I attempted to update the 44VSL driver to the latest version. I tried uninstalling the old driver per instructions in the Presonus KB and then reinstalling using the installer, and also tried by just running the installer by itself. Each time 4 drivers showed up in both the playback and record options in Sonar: *AudioBox ASIO Driver Mic/Inst 1 *AudioBox ASIO Driver Mic/Line 3 AudioBox VSL ASIO Driver Mic/Inst 1 AudioBox VSL ASIO Driver Mic/Line 3 The ones with the * were selected by default. The other ones were the old driver's designation. I even tried deleting the AUD.ini file to see if that would get rid of the olrder driver designations and it did not. I am pretty certain I removed the old drivers first, but I had to reinstall the old driver as I was getting the "rice krispies" with the new drivers where before I did not. Have any other Sonar users experienced any issues?

    to properly getrid of that driver plug it in/go to device manger and delete the driver/unplug/reboot your computer or it wont reset itself.
    then do a fresh install of the driver.
    if all else fails drop back to the driver that worked/make sure you check your download.it could be the wrong driver you downloaded.
    also remember sometimes updating a driver in sonar resets settings so you may need to tweek.
    go make sure your drivers are set to asio in preferences,this sounds like a classic case of wmd/ks and not asio set as your driver.

    I read that the new Audiobox VSL drivers require you are patched all the way to Sonar X1D, so make sure that's the case.

    Thanks for replying... "plug it in/go to device manger and delete the driver/unplug/reboot your computer or it wont reset itself"

    Did that...

    "then do a fresh install of the driver."

    Did that, too.

    "if all else fails drop back to the driver that worked/make sure you check your download.it could be the wrong driver you downloaded."

    Did that, and the Presonus web site only listed the current driver, no legacy drivers, etc. so I think I got the right one. I reinstalled the one that came on the CD with the interface.

    "also remember sometimes updating a driver in sonar resets settings so you may need to tweek. go make sure your drivers are set to asio in preferences,this sounds like a classic case of wmd/ks and not asio set as your driver."

    Driver was set as ASIO - I think I'm going to stick with what works for now.
