Silicon Chipset working :o)

[erna]

I'm glad to report to you that I have solved the problem that I wrote to
you about earlier ( Not being able to change from Edit to Mix window in
Pro Tools LE 5.3.3 on a M-box without getting click/pops and a buffer error message).
The reason that I could solve it was because I on your website could read
that Mbox was not supported on computers with motherboards containing SiS
(Silicon Integrated Systems) chipsets.
After checking my computer (Fujitsu Amilo M-6500 256 Mb Ram running on XP +S.P1)
I could see that my Display adapters was a Silicon Motion Lynx3DM. Then I started
to dig into the problem. First by sending mails and checking the digidesigns
user forums. I could see that there were other guys (maybe girls too) who had
similar problems.
But then I thought could this really be a driver problem. I went to Silicon Motions
website and checked if there was a newer driver for my display adapter than the one the
XP installation disk had installed during the XP installation - and wolla - there was a
driver with version 6.13.1.242 dated 06-12-2002 and after updating the driver
everything is running like a dream. No Pops/Clicks or buffer error message.
Just thought that I share this information with you users, so if anyone is not getting
Pro Tools 5.3.3 (M-box) to run on a Fujitsu Amilo computer this is the solution.
Noticed other users having similar problems on other computers (PCs), maybe it's a
driver problem.
Have a Nice day....a finely HAPPY PRO TOOLS USER.

Thanks for letting us know how it all turned out.

It's amazing how many "proTools' problems are really obsolete or poorly written drivers.

(BTW by 'wolla' you may mean voila- french for 'see there' -as in a sudden appearance as if by magic.) [img]images/icons/wink.gif[/img]
