New Laptop, New Problem

Post by OEA »

First gig with a new laptop (Lenovo, i5, 8GB, 512 SSD). I am running SB Setlist, DMIXS out of USB, Midi to USB cable, and audio out of the headphone jack.

So in the middle of a song, Showbuddy Setlist disappears. The audio was still playing, but no way to stop the song or to interface with the laptop. It is like the laptop froze on the desktop screen but the audio kept running. No mouse icon, nothing. I had to hold the power button until the laptop rebooted.

Really concerned about stability- which is why I upgraded the laptop in the first place. I had a piece of junk laptop that never had this issue.

Any ideas? Anything I should be looking at?
