Default help! digi001 issues

hello!

i was recently given a digi001 box and pro tools 5.1 disk. i have a max os x 10.4.11 but am having trouble having everything to work. basically, my issues are as follow;

1. Is it possible to buy a copy of pro tools version 6.4 anywhere these days? if not, is it possible to register my copy of version 5.1 and upgrade to 6.4? where could i do this?

2. (this is a strange one!) i have fitted the cpi card, but when i connect the digi001 box, the computer won't boot. when i disonnect the box the computer boots up no problem. i know the card and box are in working order as i have seen them both being used on another computer. should i install the pci card into any slot in particular or will any work? i am yet to install the software as i do not have os9 at the moment, and so the drivers for the digibox are not installed.

3. if i cannot get a copy of pro tools 6.4 what are my other software options to be used with the box? i'm runnin mac os x 4.11 but could downgrade to a 10.3.3 if required. the cheaper the better - the credit crunch has not been kind!

thanks, i would be grateful for ANY pointers!

thanks in advancve

What computer are you trying to install the Digi001 core card into?

Ahh the days of PCI stability...MmmmmmHmmmmm makes me all warm and fuzzy inside. We need a PCIe Digi004.

001 will only work in a G4 or older. It is 5V PCI, and is not compatible with G5 or newer. PTLE 5.1 will not work in classic mode. You need to be able to boot from OS9. Some later model G4s cannot do this.

Yes you can upgrade to 6.4 for $35 from the Digi store.
