Error 6085 underflow Windows 7 PT9
Hi Friends-
Countless 6085 underflow errors. There is nothing plugged into my firewire port so this doesn't make sense. I'm using PT9 on Windows 7 64-bit. I've tried all sorts of suggestions that I've found on this forum. I will say that the underflow error is worse when I have a couple UAD-1 plugins active. Sometimes so bad that the session won't work at all. Here is my Sandra report. Anyone see anything glaring?

Re: Error 6085 underflow Windows 7 PT9
Well I'm no expert on this, but perhaps your mismatched memory might be an issue? Have you done each and every one of the AVID win 7 optimizations? Also, please explain your hard drive setup. Are they partitioned? Which do use for your PTools session data?

Re: Error 6085 underflow Windows 7 PT9
Right, I know I have that mismatched memory thing. Maybe that is it????
I did EVERY one of the Avid Win 7 optimizations, and all of the elective ones too. My hard drive setup is that I have 2 physical hard drives. All data and sessions are on that drive E. Then I have a bunch of partitions on the other one, hence all the "drives". This is where several different operating systems live, including Windows 7. Long story on why that is. Anyhow, could that be problem? Thanks for the help! |

Wireless Adapter 1 : NETGEAR WNA1100 N150 Wireless USB Adapter (802.11g (ERP), TKIP, 54Mbps)
Disable this when running Pro Tools(at least until you get the problem solved. The you can bring this back and see if it causes the problem). Mis-matched RAM raises a flag to me as well and I would remove all 4 sticks and install 2x4GB of some major branded compatible RAM(and make sure timings show correctly with a new Sandra report). If nothing is on the firewire port, I would also try disabling that in Device Manager(or BIOS). BTW, why so many drive partitions? Personally, I would not partition any drive of 500GB or smaller, and I would only split a larger drive in half for "housekeeping". For sure, its not helping performance.

Re: Error 6085 underflow Windows 7 PT9
Thanks for the replies. Should I disable that adapter in the Device Manager? Is it not enough to just have it unplugged?
I'm going to address the RAM issue. I also am going to do away with some of those drive partitions. I'm running a couple versions of XP, one was exclusively so I could run my student copy of PT7 JUST so I could get cheaper OMF conversion...I'd boot in one side, convert the OMF from the client and then boot up in my regular side to work. Not useful anymore with PT9 thank goodness! One of the partitions happened because I read in some guide that you should have a separate partition for some sort of caching or something...I honestly just did it and forgot about it. The other partition is my tried and true XP running PT LE 7.4 cs2. It's very stable and being that I need it for my work I've gotta keep it until I'm positive this Windows 7 thing will work right. Thanks for the advice you two, anyone else want to chime in? |
