Loss of Plug-In authorization keys may occur error
 

Just got Pro Tools M-Powered and I'm using M-Audio fast track pro interface and also Glyph GT050q firewire external for recording audio. So after getting everything installed, I now have 2 issues that I need help with. Here is the first warning word for word: Loss of Plug-In authorization keys may occur-This system contains one or more drives formatted with NTFS, which have volume names longer than 11 characters. this combination is known to corrupt some InterLok Plug-In authorizations. If you know which drives are authorized and they are not configured this way, or If you have no Interlok protected plug-ins, then you may continue. In order to remedy this issue before corruption can occur click "YES" to quit Pto Tools and rename NTFS volumes to names that are 11 characters or less. Next re-launch Pro Tools and this dialog should not appear.
This is the next warning:
Unable to locate M-Audio Hardware. Make sure your hardware is connected and turned on. It shows that the Fast Track Pro is connected so someone please please help.
