I insatlled the 64bit version driver for firebox - but the proccess shows *32 ?!

Hi there. I own a firebox, and I recently reinstalled formatted my system.

I have Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit Service Pack 1.

I installed the latest driver(5.13). It seems to install the 64 bit version since it's in C:\Program Files\ and not C:\Program Files(x86)\. also some of the dll/sys files have a "_x64" at the end of the name.

BUT when I open windows' task manager - >processes I see "FireBox.exe *32" same for when I open the mixer(with it's respective process).

Also, before I reinstalled windows I had Windows 7 64 bit also, with firebox driver installed and I remember the drivers I could choose from In my DAW(Sonar X1) were name "Firebox.........64 1" or something like that, and now the drivers show regular names like "Presonous Firebox........1/2" etc.

Why does FireBox seem to work in 32 when I installed it as 64 ?

thx in advance.

Probably a flaw in the code or your DAW is telling it to use 32 bit instead.

Not 100% sure on this one though. Is the device functioning properly?

I think it is

Alright I think I found out what was going on.

I think it's just the firebox app that is 32.

and in sonar when I switched form WDM drivers to ASIO drivers, I could see the 64 bit drivers of FireBox.

Asio is better right? less latency and trouble as I understand...

thanks for your help guys.

Yeah, ASIO is usually better in most cases. Both are good for different purposes.
