Thanks for the reply, yes the mbox software and drivers were installed as per the instructions, and I tried to launch Pt with the N key pressed, no difference.

As I'm a newbie at audio software and hardware would it be worth trying to remove the mbox completely, and reinstall the pro tools first and then install the hardware, also would it help or be needed to have some input or output connected to the actual mbox, also, because the motherboard has an on baord sound card, would an actual; sound card help ?

probably some naive questions, but thanks for the assist guys
