I have recently installed a new ATI x1900 XT video card for my mac pro 4 core and since then PT would boot and get stuck on DSI and never get to the point of loading plugins. I got a error -4 and then -9003 (a fresh install of protools and a fresh osx and new 1TB drive). i cant find error -4 anywhere on this forum. my studio is at a stand still. Please help. any ideas?

I think error #4 is usually hardware related? sb

Your video card is a made for Mac one?

Reset pram and other Avid DAE pref trashing?

Permissions etc.....
Is all else working, just no PT's?

Did you remember to plug your interface back in? Embarassingly, I had a similar situation last week where I had my Mac repaired in my studio and I had unplugged the Digilink cables for the repair. Afterwards, I got the exact same error and after blaming it on the repair, I realized I hadn't plugged the Digilink cable back in.:o:o:o

I hope it was as simple as that.
