G4 Dual 1.25 GHz Mac and Protools crashing

Nooooooooooooo not you aswell!!!! Am I one of the 2 users you mention?? If not make it 3. I had loads of problems with my G4 dual 1.25, so went out and just bought a G5! heh. I know, but there you go, I had the money, thank God. I couldn't put the finger on my crashes, tech support didnt know either. What you gettin? SG

Hi Brian I run dual 1,25 G4, 002, , but 10.2.8, and very few problems. So, what is the PCI card you refer to? Are you recording to a separate hard drive, and if so what kind? Is the Mac quite stable in all other respects, ie with everything else apart from Pro Tools ?

iT'S A PAIN. I have tried every OS and version of Protools LE/001 that has been approved. The machine has been completely overhauled but still plays up. My Mac technician (who is a muso as well) has suggested that I spend time running some other app. to see if if it is really PTools that is causing the problems - trouble is, PTools is all that I am running. This is a stand alone machine for student usage - very lean, no frills in relation to other software.

I am running a dual 1.25 1gig OS10.3.3 ( 10.3.2 was ok too ) with protools 6.2.2 I have been ok. Digi 001 Brad

Sometimes it is weird. I have two friends that bought the same iMac and one was not working well at all and the other was flawless. The one with the problems Literally took it completely apart and put it back together and still the same problems. He proceeded to do it 2 more times. Now it works flawless,. He says he has no clue what he did. Maybe a bad connection somewhere I don't know. Good luck on a solution! I feel for you...

Hey guys, MixMonster, Have you done any more memory tests in awhile. I am still having the same problems I am taking my computer in to the apple store for the third time and they are going to do a 24 hour RAM test on it. Just to make sure it isn't RAM. Then, the tech said that he would look at the OS install and see if anything is out of wack. I'll post if there's anything interesting.
