Help with "Not Responding" messages from sonar X3 when saving projects?

I have a fairly new system running windows 7/64 and I have an SSD drive for the OPSYS and programs and a HDD for data.

I have just started having problems with all of my new projects (I started several new ones as test) when I'm getting crashes and Not Responding messages from sonar when I try to save. It's very frustrating!

I don't think I changed any preferences before this started so I'm stumped.

    May want to look in the Windows Event log for clues.

    Check to see that windows hasn't powered down your drives that you are trying to save to, under/control panel/power options and then edit your plan as it will have generic settings that WILL power down your drives. This can result in 'not responding' and 'General error' messages.

    It would also help us to help you, in general, if you add your system specs to your Forum profile Signature.
     
    Look at mine or some of the others for some idea of what kinds of stuff to list.
