Every once and a while in Pro Tools LE I get this message:

Audio processing is conflicting
with other CPU tasks. If this
occurs often, reducing the "H/W
Buffer Size" in the Playback
Engine Dialog may help
prevent the problem. (-9129)

I do as I am instructed, then I try pressing play and this message pops up:

The operating system held off
interrupts for too long. If this
occurs often try increason the
"H/W Buffer Size" in the
Playback Engine Dialog.
(-9094)

so I switch back the buffer size to 1024, and that usually takes care of the problem, but every once and a while it doesnt, and I get a nasty cycle between these two messages.

Im running Pro Tools LE 6.2.2 on a dual 1.8 G5 (512MB RAM) using it with Reason Adapted. This hasn't been a huge problem, but I am considering using my M-box for live shows, and that would be really bad if does that in the middle of a song. The only solution I can think of would be getting more RAM, but 512MB seems like a reasonable amount, and I am usually only working with, at tops, seven tracks.

any help is appreciated

haven't seen any documentation regarding this problem. It is part of the digital voodoo. Under the full moon... unplug your keyboard and recite ... I just want to go from point a to point b. Yes, the G5 is looming in my future too. But, then is it logic and firewire 410 or the 002... 32 track limit and lack of surround (ok, I'm not scoring StarWars episode III).. is putting me off of the 002. Logic seems to have intense support from Apple in a microsoft way with undeniable final cut integration. This next machine has to last me at least 3 years. Digi 001 all problems aside, was a great step up for me. good luck
