Hi Bill,
thank you.
I do have the latest asio4all.
It appears the problem isn't really with Asio4all, moreso to do with the audio on my dell. It's somehow shared. I got it to work with a piece of software called Loopbe1. Gave me a virtual midi port?? ( must be along the lines of midi yoke, but only 1 port. Midi yoke won't load for me either) t I assigned the port asio4all. Only problem was, everytime I turned on my laptop, I got an error message. I removed loopbe1, error message went away. Maybe the message was harmless, but I don't know enough about pc's.
I've got an old M Audio usb soundcard, which appears to work ok with Win7, so if I need asio, it will do.
Thanks Bill.

best wishes
Rikki

Make sure you have the latest version http://www.asio4all.com/ as it is now compatible with Win 7.

If you have an old program that won’t run in Win 7, load and run it using Windows compatibility mode, (Your given various OS options when you select it) which unlike compatibility mode in XP, actually works quite well.

In addition the sound drivers have been improved in Win 7, so you may find you will be able to set them to a low enough latency, without using other drivers.

Hope this helps

Bill
