ASIO Driver won\'t install on Windows XP x64 Edition
I have recently upgraded to a new Intel Quad core computer running Windows XP x64 Edition (running SP2). I have been trying to install my MBox on it (which was previously running on an Intel Pentium 4, Windows XP SP2 machine), but I can't get the driver to install.
1. I have followed the instructions in the "Getting Started with MBox 2" manual for Windows Installation. All the necessary steps have been taken before install. 2. I inserted the Pro Tools LE 6.8.1 CD which came with my MBox. During the installation process, during the installation of the ASIO Driver, I got an error message : "Unknown error -536870347". I clicked "Ok", and the rest of the installation finished without problems. 3. I rebooted the computer. As Windows was loading, the MBox's lights did not turn on, or flicker and after I logged into Windows I got a Blue Screen of Death (BSOD) and the computer rebooted. 4. As directed in the manual. I unplugged the MBox from the USB. Rebooted. Windows now loaded fine. And it told me I had an error report: Quote:

6. When I reboot Windows with the MBox plugged in, I keep crashing and getting the same error. Troubleshooting already attempted: 1. I have tried using the Hardware Wizard. It doesn't find any software. 2. I downloaded "Pro Tools LE 7 Setup" from the Digidesign website, but when I run it, it says "Installation and Operation of Pro Tools(R)LE requires Windows XP with SP2. This is very strange because I am already running Windows XP x64 Edition with SP2. 3. I downloaded the "Digidesign ASIO Driver 6.1.1" from the Digidesign website, but when the installer finishes, I get the same error as I did in the Pro Tools LE install : "Unknown error -536870347". 4. I downloaded the "Digidesign Audio Drivers 7.0" from the Digidesign website, but when I run the installer I get the this error message: "String WINDOWS_VERSION_WARNING was not found in string table." and the installed quits. Please tell me what I should do. The Digidesign website says that it supports Windows XP x64 Edition. So why won't my system install the driver? |

Re: ASIO Driver won\'t install on Windows XP x64 Edition
Protools is not supported on Windows XP 64-bit OS (as far as I read, it doesn't work at all). Go back to 32-bit for now. Digidesign is working on a Vista compatible version but we're not sure it will be the 64-bit version. I'm assuming this applies to the ASIO driver too.

Re: ASIO Driver won\'t install on Windows XP x64 Edition
The digidesign ASIO drivers are 32 bit, so you have to install them twice to run on a 64 bit OS.
I'm kidding of course. Protools don't work on any 64 bit windows OS. |
