We've had this system for 4+ years in our HDTV truck. It's fed from an SSL C200 console using their DeltaLink boxes, which converts 64-channels of MADI to 2-DigiLink cables. We have a total of 128-IO to/from ProTools.
We're currently running PT 10.3.3 on Windows 7 64-bit and having all kinds of issues. Actually, we've had problems with this box ever since we got it in '09, and we were on XP then with ProTools 8.
I've run all of the HP hardware tests and everything passes, but the computer changes from day-to-day whether I boot ProTools or not, i.e. system and screen preferences disappear, etc. The OS has been optimized as Avid recommends, but that changes nothing.
Before we throw this thing out and get a Mac Pro, does anyone have other recommendations? We'd have to use a Magma chassis with a Mac, which I don't mind doing, but want to exhaust all other options first. I'm also trying to get support from HP.
Thanks...
