Default Re: Service Pack 2 Not Yet Qualified With Pro Tool

Anyone with a processor supporting the NX bit or DEP hacker/virus protection feature (all Athlon 64 processors and very new Intel chips) having problems with Windows XP SP2, here's a fix that worked for me: turn off the protection. I have a Digi 001, and every time I launched ProTools LE, (I tried several versions but am currently using 6.4), the computer rebooted itself and on power up informed me that there was a problem with the Digi device driver. I turned off the protection following the steps on Microsoft's webpage and voila! it worked. Hopefully Digidesign will come out with a new driver soon to fix this problem, but until then, check out: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;en-us;878474

The main problem seems to be that digidesign's driver behaves like certian buffer-overrun exploits by trying to execute code that it has written during runtime.

If you have a Digi 002 or Digi 002 Rack and have already installed Windows SP2, you need to download Pro Tools LE 6.4cs9, which includes the following:

Fixed: Opening a Session on a Digi 002 on a Windows XP SP2 System Results in a Blue Screen (Item #54466)

We are making this fix available to our Digi 002 and 002 Rack customers who wish to use SP2 prior to completion of Digidesign’s qualification of this new OS version. While we do not anticipate problems, we have not completed our in-depth testing of SP2 with Pro Tools, so it is not officially qualified or listed as such on our compatibility documents at this time.

Note: Official qualification was announced on December 13, 2004. See first post in this thread.

I`m experiencing the same problems with my notebook emachines 6810.
Cs7 seems more stable, i`m experiencing some strange behaviour with Cs9 even with service pack 1

Default Re: Service Pack 2 Not Yet Qualified With Pro Tool

I just had to reinstalled windows xp and when I got it all set up I could not load my external HD. I looked on western digital's website and it said that I needed to install the SP2 for the usb2.0 to work, which is weird because I have been running SP1 since I had my laptop. So I installed SP2 and I got my HD to work, great! Now I try to pull up a pro tools file, PT launchs up fine but when I select a file I get the blue screen and then the laptop reboots it self. I intalled the new CS9, but still no luck. I have some work I really need to do with it, but now its broke. If I go back to SP1 my HD will not work so I can't pull up any files. HELP!!

I just had the exact same problem. I guess it's good to know I'm not alone.

I need a mac.

Hi,

How many of you are using AMD 64 based systems? And what kinds of symptoms are you seeing.

Thanks,

I got precisely the same problem as fixdrummer had. Windows kept prompting me to update to Service Pack 2. Once it was installed I ran Pro Tools. Pro Tools loaded fine. Then I went to open a song. As soon as I double clicked the file, I got a blue screen and the machine restarted. I am running a P4 2.8ghz Laptop. Thanks!
