Suddenly, my pro tools software will not open any sessions. The program opens just fine, but when i start a new session or open an old one, it builds the edit and mix windows, but will not load any tracks in them. The computer freezes with the beach ball spinning and says, "unable to load tracks". I have to reastart.

The digidesign core audio drives works just fine and i can use my Mbox to play computer sounds without any trouble so i think my pro tools software has been somehow damaged.

I have tried: a clean unintall and reinstall of Pro Tools, trashing any preferences that i can find, checking the hard drive for errors, and reinstalling the system (without formating). The only other thing that i can think of is totally formating the hard drive and starting over from scratch.

Anyone have any suggestions before i start backing up my life?

Running Mbox with Pro Tools LE 6.4 on G4 iBook 1Ghz, OS 10.3.4

thanks in advance
