There have been significant updates to SONAR's audio engine and management of MIDI data since SONAR 4.
Also SONAR 8 and upward has been optimized for multi core CPU's with advanced levels of Level 2 and 3 onboard cache whiohc is not the case with the x64 3800+ processors.
I was able to run SONAR 8.5 on my office PC which ran a single AMD x64 4200+ CPU but on Win XP SP3. I'd hate trying to do that on WIN 7 x64 though as the processors just aren't up to the task.
You have enough RAm but I'd say your processors are not able to take advantage of some of the newer instruction sets that modern processors use and an OS like Win 7 need to run efficiently.
