Can't get AA 2.0 to play with new pc

Hi folks,

I could really use some help on this:  I just bought a new pc, xp sp3, 3.0ghz processor, quad core, using an 1176se card.

All the programs installed properly, but when it comes time to try out a sound file, it can play fine once and then I try playing it again and the play light goes on, but the timeline just stops and it doesn't play.  I can reboot, only to have the same thing happen.  Any advice or help I would so appreciate.  I tried reinstalling AA 2.0 and the same thing happened, even took off sp3 and no change.  Is there a setting I'm not aware of that could fix this?

I'm confused.  As far as I am aware, the 1176se is a software limiter, not a soundcard - which begs the question, what sound card do you have?  Also, what video card ?  I know this sounds an odd question, but many audio problems have been traced to the video card .

"I'm confused.  As far as I am aware, the 1176se is a software limiter, not a soundcard".

The 1176se consists of a card attached to the motherboard. It's a great outfit.

I found the problem!  This may be of importance to anyone using a Presonus fp10 or older firepod:  if you are using version 2.44 of these interfaces they should be updated to version 2.46.  This was the solution for me.   This also may be relative to any of us using a newer pc in relation to older software. It seems like a good idea to keep updated on all applications.   Thanks regardless, Gr.

Hmmm.... I agree with Graeme, and he was obviously quite correct in fingering your sound device! Your sound device is the Presonus, not the 1176se, which is a plugin for the UAD-1 or 2 DSP card.

And if the Audition transport fails, it's almost inevitably your sound device that will cause this, because it relies completely on sound device driver feedback to run.
