Default Profire 2626 DSP Mixer buffer is locked on 64 Bits

It's locked on 64 bits, and won't let me raise it. A-audio support has been very much useless. I'm getting clicks and pops and dropouts in audio. I've gone through all of the "knowledge base" stuff and no joy. It just won't adjust the buffer once ptmp is opened, and if I change it before opening PT, it just reverts to 64.

anyone here have a solution?

I'm running XP home CS3
dual 2.4ghz intel
4gig ram
TI fire wire
running the default computer soundcard rather than the profire has helped a little bit, but not enough.

Most likely you have the M-Audio device selected in your Sounds and Audio Devices panel - you need to deselect it there and you should be able to change the buffer size.

I changed it back from the Profire to the onboard sound card in the computer, but it's still locked on 64. Not really sure what to do now. I'm thinking that I'm going to downgrade to 8.0 rather than 8.0.3. This all started when I upgraded.

I'm getting the same problem. I change everything in the windows control panel as well. I can change it to 64, 128, 256, etc.... in the 2626 no problem but once Pro Tools starts up it changes it back to 64 no matter what.

Wait, just to be sure we're all on the same page - once you open Pro Tools, are you trying to change it in the M-Audio panel or in the Pro Tools Playback Engine?

I change it in the Pro Tools playback engine. It doesn't lock out that option, I was just noticing that it changes and locks the Profire 2626 at 64 once the DAE loads. In Pro Tools its fine, but shouldn't the control panel in the 2626 change with what Pro Tools shows it as? In Ableton and anything else it does. (Example, put it on 128 in PT shouldnt the 2626 Control Panel change to 128? Why does the control panel lock at 64)Did I just make that confusing or does that make sense? lol

with pro tools closed, I change it in the DSP mixer, then when PT opens, it goes right back to 64, regardless of what the buffer size (playback engine) is in PT.
