[RWP] Running 32 bit plugs in Win7 64 with Reaper 64?

[Chris Belle]

Just disable your realtech in the bios then it won't even know it's there.

Then you can use a usb replacement or any such inexpensive sound card for your speech and such,
and use your emu for your daw work.

  Thanks, Scott.
  I can't give up Waves Diamond and other classic 32 bit plug bundles, and 
  I sure can't afford to buy all new 64 bit versions.
  The I7 computer was a totally stable beast until this accident where 
  something unaccountable behind my desk tore a 3.5mm audio cable right 
  out of the jack, shorting out the jack and breaking the cable, which 
  cause all kinds of chaos among any program associated with speech.

  Windows 7 64 doesn't care if you plug or unplug any audio cable, like my 
  XP seems to.
  That makes me think the increased stability of Windows 7 64 might be 
  worth the hassle of dealing with using old 32 bit plugs.
  Think I'll also add another drive just for plugs and associated data, 
  with the operating system on its own drive.
  I got along fine with a single drive before; didn't think I needed more 
  speed in processing, but now I believe a multi-drive system might also 
  be more stable, and protect data from operating system issues.
  Thanks,
  Indi
