Re: Mbox 2 mini blue screen, pro tools 8 le, newly installed windows xp
Just a guess but the AMD A Series are a bit of a departure from AMDs tried and true x86 architecture. My guess would be that Pro Tools doesn't like APU's. Nice chip for the desktop. It may not be the best choice for a Audio workstation. And that's just a guess. The problem may lie elsewhere.
You might run through the recommended optimazations and troubleshooting listed in the HELP US HELP - PLEASE READ This Before Posting.

...AND, integrated graphics may be a show stopper. Then you only have one hard drive....but none of that is likely related to Blue Screens(just not ideal for Pro Tools). So the BSOD only happens when? If its when you connect the Mbox, try booting with it already connected.
