hello there:
I have a P4 2.0 ghz, 1gig RAM machine running win XP w/ SP1. I am using PT 6.4. I initially had to replace the power harnass when i got my digi 002, but after that i have not had one single bump in the road until now. When i power on my 002, it takes a very long time for it to get out of the "loading" stage and then when it finally says standby and it appears ready for me to launch pro tools, it randomly goes back to loading, as if my computer is trying to communicate with the 002 but cannot. If i load PT, sometimes everything will go smooth, others, I will get a message saying that "PTs cannot locate Digi 002". I noticed that the green firewire light on the back of the 002 goes back and forth from being lit up, to not being lit up. If i am not mistaken it should always be a solid green??? This leads me to believe that there is a firewire connectivity issue going on. I have never had this problem before and I have a digi certified firewire card. I tried another firewire cable but to no avail. If anyone can please offer any insights that would be wonderful. anyone had this problem before? Is it a bitch to fix etc.
much thanks in advance,
Joe
