playback engine errors are killing ME! SOS!!

[peterflos]

I am working with MBOX on Windows XP I am always receiving the lower or raise the buffer speed errors when recording and during playback. I can record up to 20-30 seconds max before I recieve an error telling me the "audio processing is conflicting with other CPU tasks" or "operating system held off for too long" - 9093

What can I do? I am operating on a great computer 512 MB of Ram, pentium 4 CPU 3.00GHz

I tried the advice from the answer base it didn't help. I did disable the hyperthreading and that appeared to lessen the frequency of the error, but honestly not being able to record more than 30 seconds is lousy!

Anyone have a suggestion or some kind of advice on adjusting my set ups?

please email or post (prefer email any help) [email protected]

Forget the post, just buy a mac, period. I had the same (well ... similar) problems on my PC. Got a mac and voila! Not that I'm a mac fan, but believe me, they are just better when it comes to CPU intensive stuff like PT.
