Re: invalid audio drive
You should not be working on your system drive.
Get a FW drive to work on. To solve your problem, go to window -> workspace. There are two small columns "A" and "V". Click into them and make sure, they're set to "record".

However, have you tried repairing disk permissions? If that doesn't help either, and given that you already tried to reinstall PT, I'm afraid you'll have to go with a reformat of your hard drive.

Re: invalid audio drive
Yes, formating the drive means wipe it clean. You'll have to install everything again, including OSX.
