My computer crashed and now all the tracks in the project I was working on are "silent"?

     Please read this i will try to keep it short. I use a tascam us-800interface with some bx5a deluxes on my laptop which runs windows 7. Things go pretty well for running windows 7 but whenever i hook the interface up crashes occur routinely, about 25-35 minutes in. This was never a problem, but today my laptop crashed something fierce and once it restarted and i opened the project i was working on, i got a dialog box titled "silent buses detected." It says the following tracks and buses are assigned to a silent hardware output (my Us-800), and that they will remain silent until reassigned to an appropriate output. Every track and bus was listed on there, and though my laptop restarting itself usually solves the problem, for whatever reason its not working in this case, I cant even reassign the track outputs, clicking on them does nothing. I know that my interface is working because if i insert a new track and drag a midi clip down there it works fine, but will i have to do this to every track and delete the old messed up tracks, or is there some way to fix this? If there isnt, what can i do to stop crashes?

"I cant even reassign the track outputs, clicking on them does nothing." I don't really get this. You click on a track output and it does nothing? There's no options? There's no drop down? There's no output box?

Did you check the output of the buses, master included? Whenever I get that warning the bus outputs have been reassigned or unassigned and I need to assign them to the proper outputs. Also try the MIDI panic button next to the Audio engine button under the Now Time Module.

I have noticed this and believe its in your routing being lost or not present when re-launching the project. Just need to make sure everything you where using plugged into your computer when making the tracks are ON and connected PRIOR to launching X1. Close all the way out and go back in after verifying power and connections on your components are on and good.  (This is why it would work when rebooting)
 
Sounds like youll have to resolve the issue  between your computer and the interface with the crashing before anything else but to keep going on the project probably your above solution is all I can go with.
 
 
Let us know what ya come up with.

hes right this is usually a quick fix..are they greyed out??add some of your specs in your signiture or were just guessing here..also follow up with details on weather there greayd out or if there not there...if there not there try the drop down option in the track view to show all

How much Memory is installed on the Toshiba.
The only thing I can think of right now as bad as it sounds would be to try 32bit version. Not sure but 64 Bit might be a bit much for the system. Do you have any indications as to how the Toshiba is performing internally? Also buffer sizes (Playback & Record I/O and bit rates between the two (trying zero in on the 25-30 minute in crashing), what are ya set at. Im thinking put the Playback/Record I/O buffers at 512, match X1 and Tascam Bit rates, (make sure WIFI is disabled and Antivirus is OFF) get it running past the crashes, try a fresh run, save and see if problem duplicates.
Your issue with the drivers is beyond me though. This would be about my limit on being able to help.  Keep us posted though please.
