Audio Recording Erases Right After Recording

[Bfearr]

I had a guitarist over today to record on one of my tunes. The weirdest thing happened for the first time (been using Tools since v6). I would record him and then when I stopped it, what he recorded immediately erased. This is a jazz piece with a long guitar solo. I got to a point where I would record 8 bars and stop it. That worked. On another track I had him do the next 8 bars, etc. In the end, I had to patch it all together. Any idea at all what was going on? What could cause that?

I use a PC with Windows 7/64.

Thanks

I've seen this after updating Windows, uninstall, clean registry, install again and good luck

Plenty of room left on your system and recording drives?

Never seen this before.

If you're really on LE 8.0.3 as is in your system details, you need to update to 8.0.5. Some versions of 8 on Windows had a file ID bug that would cause files to go missing, not quite the way you describe as I remember it, but while the newly recorded files were still in the audio files folder, Pro Tools could no longer find them. This was fixed in 8.0.5.
