Running Out of CPU Power Error Message

[Maars]

Hi,

I have just installed Pro Tools 7.3 on a new Mac Book Pro.

I have only recorded one track so far and already I am getting an error.

When I open a recent session and hit spacebar to play the track, the error message "You are running out of CPU power. Remove some RTAS plug-ins or increase CPU power usage Limit in the Playback Engine dialog (-9128)" comes up.

Why? What does this mean?

My Playback Engine Preferences are:

H/W Buffer Size = 512 Samples
RTAS Processors = 2 Processors
CPU Usage Limit = 90%
DAE Playback Bufer is at Level 2.

My Mac is running a 2.16 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with 2GB 667MHz DDR2 SDRAM

All I really have installed on the comp is Office and Pro Tools and the Ignition Pack so I can't figure out what is causing the problem as I don't have any more plug-ins that comes with this intial pack.

I still have 70Gb of space left on the Hardrive and I'm buying an external hardrive later this week.

Why am I getting this error message and what can I do to correct things? If there is any other information I have left out let me know and I'll add to the list.

Does anyone know what the go is?

Thanks,

Maars

I had the same problem with my new MAC Pro. Have you tried to change the port where you have connected the DIGI?

I only have the one firewire port on my laptop so changing that is not an option...

Thanks tho... Any other Ideas? Is this error likely to cause any problems?
