Only one device can access the 003 at any given time so If you have a program already open that you have set to use the 003 as its output than you will not hear anything from Pro Tools until you close the non Pro Tools application. Hope that helps some

BTW there was another (Tray) Q6600 and Q6700 price drop announced last week or so. Q6600's may dip below 200.00 at some point. I have both Mac and PC and both are good. At this point XP is very stable. I enjoy building stuff to much to ever go completely Mac.

So Far, So Not So Good
Sheesh. Here I am to whine again! So far, my system, when it's working, is great. But so far I get the occasional random crash (not while using Pro Tools, though that happens)- in fact, as I was trying to post this my computer just went BEEEEEEEEP and stayed like that!!
In ProTools itself, I get the occasional Access Violation, Buffer Under/Overrun error, or Running out of CPU Power message, even when the CPU meter is barely even there. Sigh. My other issue is with Firewire. My 002 works fine on the built in FW port. But that same port won't detect 1394 drives. Neither will my SIIG chip. Same drives on USB and other computers work fine. So what am I doing wrong? I sincerely hope you guys don't mind, you're the only people who understand what I'm doing, and I trust you guys far more than any tech support people. My old PC was solid as a rock, it just had no power. I work on HD at work, and I did a DVerb test on that and I got 95... rocketeer Q6600, P5k-e/wifi, corsair xps 2 gig 1066, Arctic Freezer 7, xfx geforce8600gt, 2 seagate 250 gb sata drives, siig fw card, samsung dvd burner, partridge with PearTree HD/192 |

Re: So Far, So Not So Good
>>
you might wanna try disabling the onboard FW and wifi in the BIOS. If you are getting random errors regardles of PT try running Memtest 86+.<< I will try the MemTest, thanks. Why disable onboard FW? I mentioned I also tried it on my SIIG card, and the 002 is fine on the onboard. Naturally, the WiFi was disabled when I first booted the computer... >> And the best tip of all - start a new topic<< Isn't the name of this topic "...results and specs?" Well, these are my results!! lol Obviously, I've built the Quad in this thread, so who better to ask then you guys who work with them every day? >> Quote:
[/QUOTE]<< That was TDM Dverbs only- not counting RTAS- on a G4. Even if I got fifty to a hundred more, it would still be less than my quad for a heckuva a lot less money! Of course, we all know the things that HD can do that LE cannot, so I was just mentioning that as a point of interest. Thanks for your help! rocketeer |

Re: So Far, So Not So Good
It gets a little weirder... ok, so I dl'ed memtest at my friend's house, came back to my house and my computer wouldn't turn on. It would start the cd, then off, then on, and so on... this actually happened once before, and when it started working again I got a CMOS Checksum error, and my BIOS system time and date were reset to 2001...
So I thought maybe it's bad ram, so I traipsed down to my local Tiger Direct and bought 2 gigs of corsair dominator memory, figuring that when I returned my XMS, I'd have 4 gig. Installed it, same problem. I did notice that maybe the case seemed slightly "electric-y?" Grounding or power issue? I took out my SIIG firewire card, and the system booted up. Dunno if that's a coinkidink. Got the CMOS error again and once again my BIOS settings were set to default and 2002. I'd love to hear any thoughts on this, and remember I am a newbie when it comes to building. Sigh, my buddy's Quad that I built is so solid... maybe I should get a Mac... NO!!! AT least the system is working again, I have a ton of work to do! you guys are great, rocketeer |
