Out of Memory on Startup.

Hi guys. I have seen this issue posted once or twice before, but with no answer at the end of the thread.
 
I was just creating music like I normally do when all of a sudden, my monitor shuts off shuts off.
I tap CTRL + S a bunch to hope it saves even though I saved before, then had to restart my PC.
 
When I loaded it back up, now whenever I try to load Sonar, it just spams "Out of Memory" at me until I hold down Alt + F4 long enough for it to close all those windows + the actual sonar window.
 
I can't open projects. Can't open the program.
 
I have tried reinstalling.
When I reinstalled, I deleted ALL Sonar files and then wiped the registry.
 
I have tried system restoring.
 
I have tried running as administrator.
 
I have run a virus scan, everything is fine.
 
Firewall is off.
 
All my memory is free, nothing wrong hardware wise that I've seen looking in Device Manager and dxdiag.
 
Help??? :(

    What hardware devices are you using (audio interface, MIDI interfaces, control surfaces, etc.)?  
     
    In my experience, the "out of memory" error invariably is an issue with hardware and nothing to do with memory or directly with SONAR itself.  I suspect that SONAR has a generic "out of memory" message that pops up when it fails to initialize a hardware device for any reason.  
     
    I'd try power cycling your hardware if you haven't already.  If that doesn't help, disconnect everything and then try opening SONAR.  If that works, try reconnecting one at a time until you find the offender.  Then reinstall drivers, firmware, etc. for that.
