For future reference, you can download the manual from the Focusrite site. 

Well, the error is still coming up. And I am only using an XLR mic. 

LOL.

Sorry can't help with the interface JonBoh but I just had to ask if you were my long lost brother being as we're from the same county an' all....

Is it possible its defective? How well do you know the person who sold it to you?

Wow that is weird lol... And I also like Fonejacker/Facejacker which I assume you do judging by the avatar

Well I don't know the person who sold it to me, it was from eBay but surely if it connects to the computer and is recognised it should work? Is there a way to check if there is a problem with it?

You should download the manual and see if there is a troubleshooting section. 
Otherwise, you should contact Focusrite Customer Service or see if they have forum on the web. 

It should work easily in Sonar so this doesn't seem right. 

From what I have read on this thread I would suggest you, download the manual, uninstall all Focusrite software, run a registry cleaner and then follow the manual for installation.

As I am still a XP 32bit peep I cannot tell you how to check your USB states  I sus-p-e-c-t it is much the the same i.e. Control Panel, System, Hardware Tab, Device manager, Check properties of USB devices, power management unchecked allow system to turn off tick box.

Well after a long while of trying to uninstall and reinstall, the error is still coming up. I found out however that the Saffire 6 isn't faulty (I connect headphones to it and sound does come out.) I don't know what else I can try.

Is windows configured to also use the Safire? If so, you could try configuring windows to use the onboard sound chip. 

Or perhaps configuring sonar to share drivers would fix the issue?

Yeah the onboard sound chip is the default, I did try and disable it but it didn't make a difference. 
Sharing drivers won't affect anything after trying it a few times also.
