Thanks for the help, everyone. Found it in Windows Event Viewer: a Cakewalk plugin, Multivoice Chorus/Flange was crashing sonarpdr.exe. Sent the Event Viewer log entry to Cakewalk with the details.
RME seems to be fine on USB bus, but running with its own power is a good idea, will switch to that.
Don't have my memory utility yet, but planning to do that one as well.
