running pro tools on vista 32 please help!!!
i got the mbox 2 a while back and im running the latest version of pro tools on my gateway laptop running vista 32 (i had to downgrade from 64-bit since it wasnt compatible)
i was having many error messages pop up so i was told that it was probably because i wasnt using an external harddrive, i went out and got a harddrive and i had no problems for the first time i ran pro tools with the hardrive running, now im getting an error message -6086 about the buffer size, i used to get this message and i thought it had went away, now im not sure what i should do, is there a way to get it to work? should i just get another computer? if so which one? (that wont cost me too much) also, i just recently saw something about windows 7 having a thing called virtual pc where i could technically be ruuning windows 7 on my laptop and be using xp or something like that through windows 7. either way if someone has an answer for me it would be greatly appreciated bc im stuck thank you !!! |

By minimum requirements, do you mean that the hardrive has to be running on firewire? Or what else can I do at this point?

If your laptop doesn't already have a FW port, then you might as well not use it with Pro Tools. A Sandra report might not be a bad idea either.

Re: running pro tools on vista 32 please help!!!
the same thing has happened to me i get the same error almost every 5 minutes...i have a setup with a 003 on osx and absolutely no problem but this problem is happening now that i got an mbox 2 mini on my pc...the only thing i can think of is that my brother uses the pc as well and when i checked the operating system it said that it was vista 32 bit...(i know thats ok) but it said service pack two so i'm thinking i was updated without knowledge...(brother) i don't know if anyone has some info i'd appreciate it...thank you very much
