Hey all I know this is a vague question but generally what causes a computer to crash when running Cubase? It's happened me twice lately.

Not of sound mind
Very vague. Could be a bad plugin - If you've installed any new ones recently, try removing them and see if that fixes it.

Hi Scrubs, I know it's very very vague and I apologise. I'm trying to check for new drivers from Native Instruments for their guitar combos plug-in but I need a registration code - I don't remember it but I've sent them an e mail.

Need to find a common connection with all the times it has crashed. What were you doing at the time? What do all those instances have in common? Have you been using the same plugins each time?
Do you get any messages at all, or does the computer freeze up? BSOD? or does Cubase just crash to windows etc etc.
Also, check your Synchrosoft License Control software and make sure you have the latest version. That had me baffled for hours once.

what is this?
Sorry for the hijack... Do the licenses have an "expiration date" per se? Reason I ask is that my recording PC is not connected EVER to the internet, so getting the updated license info would be a chore.legionserial said:
Other than that, Telepaul, I would also check out the plugs. Especially if you got some off of KVR, they may have bugs that cause some crappy end results...

Not as far as I'm aware. It's more that when Cubase gets (or got) a new patch, the Licence software was updated too. Meaning that if you had a new cubase patch with old license software, it all goes tits up. Or that's what happened to me anyway. Crash city. Also by the looks of it, the version that came with the last Cubase patch was screwed. I remember I basically had to manually uninstall the Synchrosoft software, go to Synchrosoft's website, and install the newest version separately.

I've discovered what plug it is but there are no updates for it - it's a Native Instruments modeller so I was surprised it was causing a screw-up. I hit up the native instruments forum for some advice but I'm kinda bummed, it's a good sound.

If you are using a PC. If you don't already have it, download the small program msconfig and put it in the root on C:. You can put it wherever you want actually...
Run it and disable auto start programs you don't need to have running in the background after starting the computer. This will give you a more stable and faster machine. Don't know if it helps with your Cubase problems though.
