Please help, my favorite Sonalksis plugins keep causing Live to crash...

I recently upgraded my Macbook Pro from a Core 2 Duo to an i7 (2.66 w/8GB Ram), running latest OSX, w/latest Ableton (8.2.1), and latest Sonalksis versions of EQ and Compressor.

The Sonalksis plugins worked fine on the old Core 2 Duo. But now, if I open an old project using their compressor or EQ, and I try to open the plugin interface, Ableton immediately crashes. Likewise, if I open a new project and try to use a Sonalksis EQ or Plugin on a given track, Live instantly crashes. It happens whether I use the AU or VST version of the plugins.

I have already un-installed and re-installed the plugins using the Sonalksis plugin manager. Problem continues. Any other suggestions would be much appreciated! (I have already sent the crash reports to Ableton and to Sonalksis).

Thanks!!!

hmm,strange,Sonalksis never crashed on me in Live,ever!
and i also have all the latest versions(except the DQ-1,which has some strange bugs in the latest version).
i use the sv-315,sv-517,DQ-1,CQ-1,TBK & TBK 3.
did you try reinstalling Live?maybe that helps,can't hurt to try.

-Mac osx 10.6.5.
Live 8.2.1

Very odd, i have EXACTLY the same set up as you, and it's working fine, just tried.
