From the "Help Us Help You" link:
Quote:
Windows users need to provide a Sandra report, as indicated in the Setup and General Troubleshooting thread (information on how to download Sandra and generate the report is included in those threads).

The more information you can provide, the easier it will be for Tech Support and other users to assist you - take the time now to document everything you can and you'll save time in the long run.

If you have been referred to this thread and reply without providing the information requested above, including the Sandra report for Windows users, your post is very likely to be given lower priority in favor of those who have provided complete information.
General Troubleshooting - Pro Tools LE on Windows (XP & Vista)

Simply telling us you have "a Window Xp computer" is of very little help...

Do you have IE 8 installed? If so, revert back to IE & - instructions on how to do so in one of the stickies above.

You may have few other issues with your computer, not the least of which is a single core AMD trying to run PT LE 8.0 and mismatched memory, but start with IE 8.

Cheers,

I believe that generation of Athlon has been problematic with PT 8 as well. Something to do with SSE extentions, but I can't lay my hands on the Digi document at the moment...

hi. i don't have IE 8. i just reinstalled win xp so the EI is at default. i do use Firefox for my web browser. i can understand that the amd prosessor is an issue, my memmory is at 1.5 gb why it dident show i don't know could be because i have a pretty old pc with some upgrades. but anyway should the prosser issue make that problem that i got. the problem is that when i start up the instalation of pro tools it just shows a blank window. nothing to press at all.

Thanx for help so far.

There's nothing about your system that immediately sticks out as being incompatible. It sounds like it may be a DVD drive problem.

You should make sure you have the latest firmware for the drive, as that my fix it.

Otherwise you could make a disk image of the DVD on a removable drive on another computer, then bring it to this one to install.
