Line6 UX1 problems in Home Studio 2XL

I just got the Line6 UX1 and everytime I open my Home Studio version 2 XL, the Cakewalk program freezes up and I have to turn my computer off. Why would this happen? I've used the Line6 PODxt for recording with my Home Studio 2XL for a long time without any problems, what's different about the UX1? Why is it crashing Home Studio?

SteveStrummerUK,

Thanks for the reply. Yes, I've downloaded GearBox and all, but when I open GearBox then Home Studio it gets stuck. As soon as I click on anything like Options, or whatever, I get the (Not Responding) at the header and it freezes up. Then the menu bar actually disappears. I've actually tried opening Home Studio then GearBox, but it does the same thing. Any ideas? Thanks again!! I'm baffled.

SteveStrummerUK,

Thank you! That worked perfectly. I could stay in the Cakewalk program and record. Thanks!
Although a new problem occurred when I tried to update my drivers and GearBox via Line6 Monkey. For some reason it won't let update correctly. During the Windows New Hardware Wizard I get a message: Files Needed - 'L6TPortA.sys' on (Unkown) is needed. Type the path where the file is located, and then click OK

It then kept asking for various files, and I found them, but had to go step by step through the Line 6 drive folder. I don't understand why it would do that. I never had problems with installing new stuff before. I actually found found the drivers, but it wouldn't update to the latest version of drivers from Monkey. Does this sound like a defect to you?

Thanks for you help!!

SteveStrummerUK,

That makes a lot of sense, thank you!! I updated all the downloads that only pertained to XP (for the UX1), and it totally worked. Thanks so much for helping me clear this up, and on to recording with my new gear. I'm very grateful.
