Daily Crashes, aaaaarrrggghhhhhhh!!!! Options

[bobba]

Hi, i'm new to this site and have been checking around for solutions in the old posts but couldnt find a solution.
I've got a 400mhz g4 768mb and 120gb
i use logic audio 4.8 and do everything in here due to the amount of plug ins i have.recently ( about a month ago ) the program started crashing regularly, and now it has got to a point where it crashes every session.
i've thought of changing my version of logic but then it was suggested to me that it could be something to do with hardware.About 2 months ago i got an m-audio radium 61 keyboard and was wondering if this could be the problem behind the constant crashing? Could it be the oms set up?
occasionally a messge appears "internal data loop within oms"
Also i run everything thru the mac AV as i dont yet have a sound card? could this be contributing?
Please help as this is causing me a huge headache.
thanks y'all

You MUST have OMS installed BEFORE you install the software. It's a pain in the *** but you might try stripping that hard drive down to nothing and reinstalling and make sure OMS gets installed first.

hi, thanks for the tip... i had wondered if that was a factor.
what i dont understand is why when i installed oms there wasn't some kind of warning that if it wasn't installed first that there could be problems.
do you think the fact that i am just currently using the mac av to power it all could be a problem as well?
also i have been offered a m-audio delta 44 soundcard that has never been used for a very good price?... are they recommended?
