This is why you never upgrade or change anything unless your back is to the wall and you just absolutely have to because of (1) PERFORMANCE problems (as in Sonar no work) or hardware failure ... :(
Ooooh that smell
Can't you smell that smell
Ooooh that smell
The smell of death surrounds you
Not only will you have to deal with driver issues, reauth's, and redoing all the zillion tweaks you've done over the years/months ... the WORST experience is when you open up previous projects and they are all screwed up, because you forgot to save this or that exacto-mondo, because paths have changed and something can't find something quire right, or other crap. I absolutely HATE upgrading my DAW. I just want to turn everything on, kick back, chill out, and everything technical works the way it's supposed to work!!
Did you try to overclock. The 945 easily overclocks to 3600. Know how?
