Default computer restarts at launch of Tools

Ok, i've fixed this problem before on a friends set up, now its happening to me and i cant seem to find how to fix it again, forgive me if there is a thread already that has the answer, i've been looking for a while and i cant seem to find any answers....

So i have a q9550 quadcore 2.8ghz, Gigabyte mother board, Wndows Home, service pack 3, trying to run 002 rack with tools 6.4, which i downloaded from the site for free, plus i also downloaded the tools 6.4 PACE drivers for service pack 2, just to see if that would fix it, basically everytime i go to open tools, the blue screen of death apears and restarts. I think its the PACE drivers, but not sure, is there another patch for service pack 3? what should i try, do etc..... HELP!!!!! PLEASE!!!!

Have you installed both cs6 and cs9 for SP2/3 compatibility?

I would update the PACE drivers to the latest version. I had a 001 running on Dual Core and 6.4 cs9 and it was running great. The 002 will run on newer version of PT and I would recommend 7.3/7.4/8.0 or anything after 7.0 in order to take advantage of multicore.

yeah i did the cs9 update and thats it, is there another one that i have to install?

I thought updating cs9 did all the PACE updates, i havnt updated the interlock drivers, as i'm not using my usbkey yet, do i have to install that just to get it running?

umm, i got the exact set up (my gear) running on a friends cp with 6.4, this happend to him, but i think i just installed cs9 and it fixed everything, his pc was almost exactly the same, he just had a q8900 chip instead of a q9550...

bah...if getting 7.4 will fix it then i'll just have to try and get it

You want to head over to PACE and get the latest drivers.

No. But the PACE Interlok drivers are used for more than just the ilok usb key.

Pro Tools uses the PACE drivers for it's own authentication (without the key) and requires the updated drivers. Not having them will cause exactly the problem that you are having.

It is a known issue, and has been a known issue since 6.4 came out 5 years ago.
