Amp Farm 3 freezing PTHD8 on boot up plugin scan

[DigitalMetal]

I used to own Amp farm 2.4 on my old Mix system and sold the licence when i got PTHD,

Since selling it i kinda missed it a bit so i thought id get a licence off ebay for Amp farm 3.

ive installed the latest version from the digi site that says its for V7/V8 and got the licence on my ilok but when i boot PT and it scans the through plugins it gets to amp farm and just sits there forever and i have to close the process down to get out.
So in a nutshell my PT8 wont boot with Amp Farm installed,

Has anyone had the same problem at all with this?

Im on a PC with an Asus P5WDG2WS-Pro Motherboard
2GB Ram
an intel Q6600 CPU
Win XP SP3 (all digi tweeks done)
HD3 (1core,1Accel,1Process) in an Expansion HD
No CS updates although im currenty downloading CS3 to see if it helps at all.

I know Amp Farm Is no longer supported but i woulda thought it would be ok since its such a bread and butter plugin,

Thanks anyone who might be able to help !
