Patch preset loading issues and CPU Overload

[notedmusic]

I'm getting out of CPU power errors when I'm only at 34% load.


When I use PLAY instruments, upon opening a session, the instruments sound all garbled and nasty unless I manually play the song several times...


What's up with that?

Also:

GUI issue here.
When I minimize PT, the window cannot be restored (crashes to desktop) though it can be "previewed" via sneak peak.

No workaround found yet for GUI crashing to desktop after minimizing or CPU error.
