Anyone Have Firewire Audiophile??

[Mellontron]

I do..and the demo works great on my mac ...but on my pc laptop rig:

Dell Inspiron 5150 P4m , 1 gig ram, 5200 rpm system drive, 7200 rpm firewire audio drive --chained to Audiophile

It's real buggy. Plays fine then start getting clicks and pops..then drastic drop out.

I want to buy PT m-powered for that system, but i can't figure out what the problem is.

I have it and I tried the demo with some
protools 6.4 .6.7 tdm session and it worked
well! without any pop click...

maybe try to update the drivers?

i used the current drivers that came from m-audio... i wonder if its a chipset issue or something...

my true theory is since its a lAPtop..the audiophile is figting my firewire hard drive for bandwidth on the firewire bus....and I'm losing synch....?!?!? I dunno....M-audio support sucks.. They emailed me and they replied that they don't suggest daisychaining firewire components.....

lame...hahahahah
