Steinberg 816x - failed to initialize - Yamaha WDM driver disappears.

Hello to all
I have a PC and a Steinberg 816x and a very strange problem.
After installing the driver and the software everything works well.
Problem starts when after rebooting the windows (XP SP2) I get a following error message on the screen: "Failed to initialize".

Steinberg Cubase 5 vs Cakewalk SONAR 8 Producer Edition

I'm looking to buy some recording software along with a computer interface. My comp is fast, no problems there. I'm thinking about a MOTU 2408 Core MkIII PCIe interface. That leaves me with about a $600 budget for the software. I'm thinking Cubase 5 or SONAR 8. I will mostly record band audio (drums, bass, guitar, vocs) but will also do my singers side project hip hop stuff.

Steinberg Cubase Studio 4 or SX/SL3?

Just wondering what you guys think. I'm doing my own comparisons online also.

What are some of the different tools on each that you guys found especially useful? What is the SL3 "Hybrid" version?

I do basic audio and midi single-track recording, editing, and am learning to do some mastering. I've been using Cubase SE for about a year now and am thinking of upgrading.

A question about Steinberg's wavelab 5

I made a recording of a vocalist and guitar but after the recording played it back and found that there was too much guitar and not enough vocals in the mix. Is there any way of splitting up the sound with wavelab 5 or anyother program so as it can be remixed, bearing in mind I only have one WAVE file.

Thanks,

Steinberg Cubase SE HELP! I'm a noobie

This may seem terribly simple to some but i need help. I just bought Cubase SE and i need to know how to hook up my guitar so i can record some simple demos. I have a M-audio USB interface but i dont know how to make that the input so that Cubase uses the signal from my USB port instead of my sound card. Help would be very much appreciated.
