PROBLEM SCENARIO
OK...I Have a Mbox (original) and I'm having the hardest time trying to install my version of ProTools onto my computer. I couldn't get my version (5.33) to work on my computer.
My friend installed ProTools 6.4 onto my computer. Everything looked right, but then when I tried to open the ProTools Icon, it crashed my computer (or rather made it restart) then after the reboot it said "a serious error has just occurred". And it keeps doing that. grr. I thought his 6.4 might be compatible, but it's being weird too. Is there something wrong with the version my friend put on my computer? It shouldn't be restarting my computer!!! If anyone can help, that would be great and I thank you in advance. Email me or just post back.

Re: PROBLEM SCENARIO
The first version of Pro Tools to work with SP2 is 6.4cs9.
Here is what you need to do:
Make sure you trash your prefs and databases after updating (How To is mentioned in the General Troubleshooting thread). Also, using "your friend's" copy of Pro Tools is illegal. You really should purchase your own upgrade. I would definitely recommend version 7.

Re: PROBLEM SCENARIO
I have Version 5.33 (the Cds and everything) but it won't work on my computer for some reaon, so he's letting me try his. He broke his Mbox and doesn't have enough money to fix it...so he said he would give me his version of ProTools to see if it works.
I just want the darn thing to work! Thank you. |
