missing expand .dat file
I've been using expand unsuccessfully for about 2 weeks, it says I'm missing a .dat file, which I'm told contains expands sound libarary. I tried reinstalling expand several times with no luck, how do I go about finding this missing file?

Re: missing expand .dat file
I was under the impression that the pro tools CD (which contains expand and its set up driver) was all i needed when I purchased the pro tools "bundle package".

Re: missing expand .dat file
If you have a recent Pro Tools installation DVD with the Xpand! installer, then you should already have the Xpand!.dat file you need. Do a search on your computer for that file name.
You should also have a PDF named Set Xpand! Content Location.pdf with the following information: Quote:

Re: missing expand .dat file,
The problem was a dirty installion disc. I wasn't able to download the "full installion" of expand, only the plug-in which doesn't include expands.dat file. Once I realized CRC(cyclic redudancy check) meant I needed to clean my disc so my PC could read the file, I was good as new. Appreciate the help!
