midi problem

Hi, I'm running Vegas 3.0c in Windows XP home, using an SB Live platinum (live drive) as my midi interface.

I was having vegas send midi timecode to trigger playback of things, and recording tracks as I went, but after each recording session (luckily after saving the recorded track), Vegas locked up.

It also locked up when I was trying to apply changes on the sync setup screen, assigning the midi port for the timecode generation.

Are there acknowledged bugs in Vegas's handling of midi ports, or could this be a driver problem.. or worse yet, a hardware problem? Other applications have not had any problems like this...

thanks.

Check for a MIDI loop. For example, both MIDI in and out cables connected to the MIDI interface, MIDI in and out ports assigned in the app.(Vegas) and "soft thru" turned "on" in the MIDI device (keyboard?). Turn "soft thru" off to break the loop.
