Great Crap Almighty! All of the sudden, if I am using HS with Fruity Loops as a DXi and shutdown HS2004xl, I can't open HS again unless I reboot. No error message, just no response to my click.
I recently tried disabling ACPI mode, a failed experiment, it wouldn't let me start XP except in safe mode, where I promptly reverted back to original settings. Since then, I had to re-download Windows media and fix one other thing that was screwed up.
So, I'm assuming the ACPI experiment is the source of this problem of having to reboot.
I tried deleting FL from the synth rack before shutting down HS, but I still can't restart HS.
I'm afraid I'm going to end up having to reload XP, nice.

P.S.
Here's part of the instructions I was using for the ACPI experiment:

Although ACPI is designed to allow easy integration of power
management and PCI Bus resources, we have seen numerous cases where disabling ACPI as improved performance and eliminated resource conflicts. Please note that you will need to have all of your device drivers present when doing this, as Windows will re-enumerate your hardware and prompt you for the drivers.
