Re: Best Laptops for PTLE

Hi Allen,

I gave up. I did not try 7.0 but everything else. I did get my 1Gig of memory from crucial. It just wouldn't work reliably and would never work below 256 buffer. I did disable and...

Re: Help

Allen,

After two days chatting with tech support and trying a Firewire Card Bus, it looks like I should have just taken your advice. The best tech support could come up with was fresh install,...

Re: Best Laptops for PTLE

Problem is I can either have PT running great or have a working laptop.... I've got PT going now but a 256 buffer only. 6088's on anything lower, internal or external drive.

I'm glad it is working for you. I'm still not up and running after 3- XP Standard PC intalls today. How exactly did you disable the sound? I tried a few ways and no improvement.

Re: Best Laptops for PTLE

I'll get a gig of ram and try that. If you say the memory is causing my 6088's I'll spend the $$$'s. I did search a bunch and found lots of posts about this problem but very few posts...
