Audio Dropouts with Focusrite 6i6 Audio Interface [SOLVED]

I got rid of my AKAI EIE Pro due to excessive noise. Purchased the Focusrite 6i6. No more noise. However, I am getting some serious audio dropouts and freezing during both playback and recording. Sonar Platinum will play about a minute before locking up. In Sony Music Studio, I can't even get one measure to play.
 
I followed the thread in this link (http://www.sweetwater.com/sweetcare/articles/focusrite-mix-control-tutorial-video/) under PC Optimization. In the Focusrite's Mix Manager, I seem to get the best results when setting the latency to 20. In Sonar's preferences I've got that down to 512 samples. Anything higher doesn't help.
 
The AKAI was noisy but I rarely got dropouts and freezes.
 
If anyone uses this interface, I'd sure be interested to see what settings you've got.
