I just bought the Screenblast version of Acid 4.0a, and have had the program crash all but one time I've presssed the record button and hit either Start or Cancel. I'm using an M-Audio MobilePre USB preamp for recording, and have Windows XP on a brand new and very fast Toshiba laptop that more than exceeds all the system requirements. I understand that it is impossible to change the Audio recording device in the preferences on this version of Acid. Is the program incompatible with my preamp? Is there anything I can do? This is extremely frustrating, especially since Technical Support is a 900 number. Please advise. |

Have you tried emailing support? (You'll have to create an account, which is free.) Aside from that, try uninstalling and then reinstalling Screenblast and the MobilePre's drivers as well. (Be sure to go through an uninstall routine if there's one for the MobilePre before reinstalling.) Also try picking up the latest drivers for the MobilePre if possible. Try also to ensure that the MobilePre is on a USB port all its own and not sharing any resources with any other device in the system. (This can be easier said than done with a laptop.) Typically, a USB controller has two USB ports on it, which share resources, so if you have something else other than the MobilePre plugged in there, take it out.

My thanks. I emailed support earlier today, but have not yet received a reply. I installed the latest drivers for the MobilePre but have not unistalled the device. So far I've had little luck. I'll try uninstalling both now and will tell you how it went. |

I cannot reproduce your problem here with the MobilePre. Would you post back with more information, please? Crash details, project settings, etc... |

Is your processor an AMD? Is there a Via chipset? There are known issues with M-Audio/Via chipsets. Alot of people (including myself) have experienced crashes when mixing Via with M-Audio. M |
