Re: PC Question 2015/10/11 21:33:55 (permalink)
I went with an off the shelf Dell with an I7 and 16gb RAM, but made sure to get a version geared for business without the bloatware.  It came with Windows 7 Pro and a disk for Window 8 Pro (now upgraded to Windows 10 Pro).  All I had to do was disable the integrated audio and install a video card.  It works really well with my 18i20 and it was a reasonable price.

Regards,
Tracy

Pretty much what I did. You can uninstall the unnecesssary crap like Intel management software in add/remove programs, or what I prefer to do, wipe and install windows from scratch. My Dell works very well indeed, and is also optimized for porno...

To OP try this...
 
Try deleting AUD.INI first (google for details).
After that,go to Sonar preferences and disable - allow arm changes during playback.
