Default Help with Acer Aspire 5930G. PTLE 8.

Hi.

I have experienced the usual 9092 - 9094 error. I have read through a few posts here and noticed several things, but I am just an intermediate Pc user, so I am not certain in what concrete things I should do.

One thing I have done is that I bought myself an external HD (7200rpm)(it has not arrived yet) that may be linked to the eSATA port. Does this work? Should I install PT on this drive or is it just important that I save on the external drive?

Are there any other things I should do? I'm not sure whether my laptop is supported or not, but I think it should be good enough.

Thank you.

Svend

Default Re: Help with Acer Aspire 5930G. PTLE 8.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but all Acer dual core laptops are incompatible:

http://www.digidesign.com/index.cfm?...4&itemid=28927

Not Supported — Known Incompatibility

The Dell Precision M65 and M90 are Incompatible with Digidesign FireWire Peripherals
Digidesign has confirmed that the O2Micro FireWire controller in the Dell Precision M65 will not recognize the 003, 003 Rack, Digi 002, Digi 002 Rack, or Mbox 2 Pro.
On the Dell Precision M90 (which uses a RICOH FireWire controller), Pro Tools throws unresolvable 6088 errors when recording to a FireWire drive with the 003, 003 Rack, Digi 002, Digi 002 Rack, or Mbox 2 Pro connected.

The Mbox 2, Mbox 2 Mini, Mbox 2 Micro, and original Mbox USB peripherals are unaffected, and are qualified for use with the Dell Precision M65 and M90.

ACER Dual Core Laptops are Incompatible with Digidesign FireWire & USB Peripherals
Incompatible with 003, 003 Rack, Digi 002, Digi 002 Rack, Mbox 2 Pro, Mbox 2, Mbox 2 Mini, Mbox 2 Micro, and Mbox
ACER dual core laptops — all models

Thank you for a quick answer.

That was bad news indeed. I'll have to build myself a desktop when I'm not so short on cash.

thanks again.

Depending on the age of the LapTop and where you bought it, you may be able to trade up/in to/for something else.

Question Re: Help with Acer Aspire 5930G. PTLE 8.

I wasn't able to. But thank you anyways.

I will continue to ask questions here, so I won't make any thread pollution.

I am looking at a desktop solution now, and I wonder if you guys think it will be compatible with my mbox 2 mini studio bundle.

I am following the i7 thread, but it is a lot to read, and I could not find anyone who had tried this mb.

I chose this rather strong package because I'm looking into upgrading my studio in the future when I know the basics.

The desktop I am looking at now is something like this:

INTEL MB BLKDX58SO 1600FSB CORE I7(FCPA-1366) DDR3 AUD+LAN RAID SATA ATX 10PK (BLKDX58SO)
2 X Sharkoon Silent Eagle 120x120x25mm 1000rpm 19 dB (silenteagle120x120-1000)
Sharkoon Rebel 9 Economy Edition Midi ATX black, w/o PSU (tqxs02)
INTEL Core i7 920 2.66GHz 8MB LGA1366 Boxed (BX80601920)
Seagate 1TB 7200RPM S-ATA harddrive 3,5 *** (1TBSATA3.5)
Seagate 1TB 7200RPM S-ATA harddrive 3,5 *** (1TBSATA3.5)
G.SKILL 6GB DDR3 Kit (3x2GB) PC3 10666 1333MHz Non-ECC CL9 (F3-10666CL9T-6GBNQ)
Chill Innovation CP-520A4M 520W Modular (CP-520A4M)
PointOfView GeForce 9400GT 1024MB PCI-E Graphics Card (R-VGA150915-P)
DVD±R/RW DL burner black (bulk), SATA (DVDRW_SATA_BLACK)

I will probably go for win xp sp3.

This package will cost me about 1.400$

If you can't imagine this is worth it, or if you can give me any better ideas I would be very thankful.
