Kontakt has worked flawlessly on every machine I've had so I'm guessing you tried a non-kosher version if you had problems. The Native Instruments site has all the programs and add ons.
My system restore kept failing , and after around two hours I found within mozzilla a check box to allow it to automatically use network settings and got the internet back.
Then I tried to run my usual Malware "Malwarebyte" , but seems they have "upgraded " and now it keeps freezing (common problem according to the forums). I have run Spybot and AVG and hopefully killed off most of the spyware , but feel the laptop has been somewhat crippled and nearly took a flight out of the window...
Will have to take a break away from it as really fed up. Perhaps that is why I like guitars . Plug in /switch on the amp and we are away.... :-(
There are some free, basic and very cut down versions of the Native Instruments stuff on their site:
I find NI stuff to be excellent sounding, if somewhat idiosyncratic in it's operation.
My favourite free synth is the Ichiro Toda's "Synth1". It's basically a modelled Nord Lead 2. Don't be fooled by the basic looks, it sounds great and is very economical on your CPU. Another massive plus is that there are many banks of sounds kicking about so you should be able to find something you like.

In summary there's a shitload of free stuff out there. Some of it wonderful, some less so. Part of the problem is filtering out the crap.
It's also worth keeping an eye on, and subscribing to, various manufacturers sites and forums. From time to time they do some decent offers or give a free download of a usually paid-for product.
I bought computer music mag and got a number from there. Still having trouble getting them into reaper for some reason. Have followed guides on you tube (if I remember well Preferences /options then browse the computer to add the pathway , rescan then apply). Think I might give up for a while and go back to my AW1600 for a while as spending too much time sorting computer and not enough playing !
Thks for everyones comments
Have a swizz on the reaper forums, the resident guru's will sort out any issues without the condescending bitchiness you get on other forums *cough* ableton *cough*.
The LePou amps are also good.
