Sonar 8.5 LE out of sync

Hello, sorry to hear of your issues. Do you have windows update on. They sometimes want to change your audio driver, best to be selective of the drivers you install.
If that is the case, it may just be a simple matter to go to the audio setup in Sonar and change the driver back to whatever you were using for pro audio. I had all those cards at one time and the only one that supported ASIO natively is the X-fi, though at the time I think the ASIO drivers were not very good and you would be better off using ASIO for all anyway.
The problem you are describing is called latency. Make sure to check your sample rate, the lower the sample rate, the less latency you should have. Check your driver mode, if you can't get satisfactory results with your native WDM driver mode, I recommend trying ASIO for All http://asio4all.com/ install it, set the sample rate as low as you can get it stable, usually about 128 or 256. You should then see ASIO as an option in the Sonar audio setup, choose that and you should be good to go.
 
Just so you know, none of those cards are well suited for use with Sonar, they will work but are designed to play games and support the audio needs of games. There are parts of a gaming card, like an onboard midi chip, that really hinder pro audio performance.
 
Depending on how serious your needs are, you may want to consider a dedicated pro audio interface.

Just upgraded to 7 and acting strange could be a result of not having your motherboard chipset drivers loaded yet, I would get all the windows updates and check the  other drivers on the update for drivers for the soundblaster you are using. Bad news is, looks like creative labs is no more, I'm not sure if they ever provided drivers for 64bit windows. What version of 7 are you running? 
 
If you are not accustomed to hunting down drivers, you may want to give one of those 3rd part driver updaters. This is a pretty good one, it is add supported so you will need to decline the installation of a toolbar if you don't want it. http://www.iobit.com/driver-booster.php
 
I's been a while since I was in the market for an interface I'll have to look into that.

I downloaded asio4all, but I cannot get X-fi pro as an option for audio input, only audigy. I switched back to MME and now he audio is delayed so something is happening. On my other computer I am going to revert back to Xp and see if i nave any issues there.

Correct. All different cards. I am going to see if I can get the Audigy to work with ASIO since that is the only option showing up. I cannot seem to get any response when I record though. Will have to check that out. Thanks for the links above. I am definitely going to order one of those. I really appreciate your time

If recorded audio is early, that can only be one thing: the driver is mis-reporting its latency to SONAR, causing the DAW to overcompensate. You can correct that via the Manual Offset setting, but beware that whatever correction works for one interface may not be right for the others, so pick one interface and one driver mode and stick with it.
 
To make the correction, you have to first determine how many samples off the audio is. The most accurate method is to use a loopback. Use any audio file, which can be a test signal or something you've created (drum hits work well), loop the card's output back into its input and record it. You'll then be able to zoom in and see how far apart the original and recorded tracks are (right-click on the M:B:T display in the upper left of your screen and select "samples"). If the recorded audio is, say, 400 samples ahead of where it should be, enter "400" into the Manual Offset box. If the recorded audio is lagging behind, enter the correction value as a negative number.

 Back to XP, not sure how you restored, if you don't have service pack 3 installed, I would get windows updated completely.
 
You may want to check all your driver settings. A safe sample rate should be 44100 for projects in the driver settings in Sonar Audio setup. Don't forget to launch the ASIO for all driver control panel and set the buffer rate as low as you can get it, too low will give you pops and drop outs, too high, latency.

ASIO buffers can only be adjusted via the ASIO control panel.
 
What you're experiencing is not related to buffer size anyway.

I looped the audio through but I cannot find where to zoom in. I cannot find the M:B:T display.
