"Illegal instruction" in thread "Main Thread"

[LEDGE7]

I have just installed PT 7.3.1 and when I try to open a session I get: "Illegal instruction" in thread "Main Thread" , at address 0xbfffd950.
Also the message: Assertion in "/Volumes/Development/vb_cliff/AlturaPorts/DFW/Macbuild/../Views/UMenu.MacOS.cpp" line 922

The second message repeats itself over and over when I click "OK".

Please help me figure this out. I am in a session with a studio of impatient musicians!

Thanks,
L7

I´ve just installed PT 7.3.1 and get almost the same instruction when i try to start Pro Tools:

"Segmentation fault" in thread "MainThread", at adress 0xbfffd910.

The same second message that also repeats itself;

Assertion in "/Volumes/Development/vb_cliff/AlturaPorts/DFW/Macbuild/../Views/UMenu.MacOS.cpp" line 922

I´ve trashed all pref.files, deleted all DigidesignDatabases, but no luck...

Thought it had something with the Mojo SDI to do, so i removed all the Video-enginefiles but the only thing that happened was that Protools crashed without instructions..

Any idea?


Protools HD3
OSX 10.4.8
Avid Mojo SDI

I have almost the same pb, sometimes when I open a session (but not when starting ProTools) or do some tasks with plugins, I get the message
"Segmentation fault" in thread "MainThread", at address 0xbfffde90
or
"Segmentation fault" in thread "MainThread", at address 0xbfffdd50
...

But I don't have the assertion problem next.

It appeared since I installed 7.3.1 version and I have the same problem with 2 computers.

Both are Dual G5 PPC with Avid Mojo, one with HD3 Accel, the other with HD3 Process.

It seems to be a current problem as I'm not alone to get this message.

Any idea?

I also get this: "illegal instruction" in thread "Main thread", at address 0xbfffd7b0 message when trying to open RTAS plug ins.

Pro Tools crash after this message and I have to reopen PT.

Could it be because of the new RAM I just bought?
I've used Pro Tools for many years. It is the first time I get this message.

Very difficult to say without more details about your system.

The Help Us Help You thread has details about what we need to know to assist you further. The General Troubleshooting has a list of suggestions that also may help.

I think maybe it is because of the Trilogy and the Atmosphere. They cause Pro Tools crash (after PT 8 upgrade). I have just installed Trillian and Omnisphere.
Everything seems fine now!
I wait until next error before I go further with this. Thank you for fast responding.
