    Greetings everyone,
    All of the sudden PT 10.3.9 won't play. I have the session open, hit the Play button, nothing. All I see after hitting the Play button is the Stop button turning blue for split second, and that is it.
    I was going through old sessions, opening and closing them trying to prioritize which music I need to finish first, it was working fine then it stopped.

    Check you playback engine in P.T as well as the one in the device manager.
    Sometimes,P.T will switch to a different card/asio for no reason.

    OK will try as soon as my Win behaves and starts seeing my 3rd hard drive, which has all my sessions files. Thank you sir, will keep you posted.

    Not sure what happened, but now it's working. Maybe a reboot cleared some glitches. By the way, I didn't see anything related under Device Manager?

    Cool.
    P.T is constantly doing some weird things but i'm glad you got it back up and running.
    I said device manager but it's probably easier to sort out under hardware and sound but both can cause issues if you have multiple cards and/or asio drivers.
