HA! I deleted the VST2 preset in Session Drummer 3 and the step sequencer patterns just in case, restarted X3P and it now works! I figured it may be that. It was the only thing I changed. Weird that it quit working after a couple hours though. Whatever, all is well again. :)
 
YAY!!!!!!!!!
 
Thanks for helping guys, I was in a pickle there for a moment.

SD3 should just be a plugin that you would select as the only one, in a custom install of Sonar.  Only have it install SD3.

From what I remember from the install, you have to start the first file, then it keeps asking for the next 3 files. No options until completed. I could be very wrong on that though.
 
Thank you for the help, I really DO appreciate it.
 
Wish I would have opted for the CD now. Dang instant gratification got the best of me.
 
No more saving presets for me, no sir, not this kid.

Glad you are sorted out.

It is possible to create an install DVD. Unpack the download files using 7-Zip or a similar tool and burn the extracted files to a DVD. Alternately, the physical media is available at the Cakewalk store.
