Just looking for tips on tweaks & optimizing for X2 in windows 8. I have not installed X2 yet. I want to do all my windows tweaks if I need any. The new layout is going to take a lot of getting used to tho. I liked XP

I have the stock Win 8 Pro 64 bit installed with Sonar X2.  Although Win 7 64 bit is still my "production" system, I've used the Win 8, without any tweaks and all seems to work.  However, I don't do a lot of MIDI or use samples so it may make a difference.  

Do not try to use the DPC Latency Checker on Windows 8.  The checker is not compatible with Win 8 and will give false latency spikes.
