Basic,

This is how I setup my system:

1. Install the OS with *nothing* else attached. No other PCI cards installed. Install SP1. Install all the critical patches and updates.

2. Install CW card with drivers - REBOOT

3. Install CW Scope OS - REBOOT

4. Tweak CW settings / save / define startup project

5. Install TC card with drivers - REBOOT

6. Install UAD card with drivers - REBOOT

7. Install Midex drivers - REBOOT

7. Install Cubase + Updates - REBOOT

Load and run initial tests on Cubase with the other cards. If this is good I then go on to install my other apps and vsti's.

This method seems to have worked the best for me.

Reading this, I had to think about an old (and obviously very true) Linux joke:

-----
Windows -> REBOOT / Linux -> BE ROOT
-----

Sorry, no flames please... :wink:

But it's in fact true, you only have to reboot Linux when you switch the kernel (installing a driver is not changeing the kernel, for example. Updating the kernel from 2.6.5 to 2.6.6 is... :smile:).
Don't know about Mac's - do you have to reboot OSX all the time?

There are quite a lot of those jokes, like:
"Avoid the Gates of hell - use Linux"
or:
"The manual said: Windows 2000 or above - so I installed Linux"
or:
"It's Linux if it has a X in it's name - the Xbox has to be Linux, then"
and many, many others...
