Hello all,
Is the "Drivermode.zip" utility still available?

Never heard of it. What does it do?

It solves a problem of not being able to switch audio driver to asio in sonar 5...I have an old desktop with sonar 5 i hooked back up but cant choose my driver.
A search of the forum shows this was a common problem a few years back, though i can't recall having it.

Most likely that was a cmd file to change the driver mode in the registry.
 
First, confirm the registry path where the value to be changed is located:
Open a cmd prompt (admin).  Right click start button and choose cmd prompt (admin)
Then, you can use the query cmd like so:
 
reg query "HKCU\Software\Cakewalk Music Software" /f Core /s
 
You should see it list the location of the found value.
 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR\Platinum
Core REG_DWORD 0x20
 
For SONAR 5 it may list something like:
 
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR\5.0
Core REG_DWORD 0x29a
 
Second, something like this should update it to ASIO:
reg add "HKCU\Software\Cakewalk Music Software\SONAR\5.0" /t REG_DWORD /v Core /d 0x29a /f
 

You totally went over my head with this..😀😀
Can you give me the "For Dummies" version? 👍

This link is from many years ago, so it may be dead, now.
 
Edit: removed bad link.
 

Hmmm. As it turns out, I saved the zip file, too.
The link above is not what you want, although it worked in 2007 .
Tried to unzip it on this Win 10 machine, but Windows 'protected' my PC and wouldn't open it.

try using 7-zip (winzip, etc) to unzip it? (assuming you used windows built-in zip handling)

Could you possibly email it to me??
The machine i need it for is in Xp....

I saved this file years ago in case I ever needed it. I think I did use it on my last computer, but I don't need it on this machine; it just happened to be still residing in my Documents folder.
 
Solocky, I don't think Cakewalk would have a problem with me sending it to you, but it is their property, so maybe one of them can chime in on my disseminating their file?
