Well, it's easy when you can design the whole system from end to end & work out the compatibilities
in test. Windows has to run on improvised hardware. Explains a lot, though mentioned rarely.

You said it all when you said Acer...they are disastrous, the tecchies I know haven't recommended them for about 10 years now. Apple do make very solid reliable hardware for media, that's for sure...good call going Mac for that, no arguments at all.

Heh!

 

Well, the final straw for me was when my Acer committed seppuku mid-set (had to revert to a backing-track CD I had to hand). Now the only headache I have is to find something with which to effectively tape over the fucking illuminated apple on the MacBook lid, which would otherwise make a stage look like it's got the Chemical Brothers on it.

Next thing I'd look at in that case is whether the BIOS is allocating slots itself, or relying on a "Plug & Play Operating System" to do it. This kind of thing is hugely irritating, and is part of the reason I've moved to a MacBook Pro for music stuff.

Cheers, but yes we went through that. It still insists on 'reverting' after every shutdown.

Apologies if you're past this, but : is the original soundcard integrated into the motherboard? Even if not, I'd take a look at the BIOS options and see if you can physically select the PCI slot with the new soundcard.

iTunes...a totally invasive piece of annoyance! That little ficker tried taking over every sound device on my pc. It is now gone!
Windows, still insists on using its own primary s/c after installing the delta 1010, with the original s/c no longer on the drive. Reformatted and all :[
Bloody annoying at the beginning of each recording session.
