fb* Posted October 31, 2007 Share Posted October 31, 2007 Is anyone running a MOTU firewire card with their hackintosh? I'm having some troubles related to my Ultralite. It runs perfectly but when I'm using it I have crashes and when it's off I don't. Ta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fb* Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 Hello My system: Asrock 775dual-vsta intel e6400 nvidia 7300gt 2gb ddr2 ram pci firewire card. I think my firewire pci card may be the problem, not sure yet. It does not crash all the time. Have tried 10.4.9 uphuck and 10.4.10 XxX. Will try Leopard soon. I'll let you know how it goes.

aliab Posted November 3, 2007 Share Posted November 3, 2007 What is crashing ? the finder or the audio application you are using I've never got working DP 5 on a Hackintosh nor in Tiger neither in Leopard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fb* Posted November 3, 2007 Author Share Posted November 3, 2007 It varies. One situation I can reproduce every time is: running Logic 8, I try to bounce a project that is just audio, no instruments. It's a long project, over 1 hour. At some point during the bounce Logic locks up with spinning beachball, after a while it takes out the whole system. Mouse moves but nothing works. If I use a usb soundcard instead it bounces fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
