Problems With Dp3.11 And Os9.2, freezes on close of application Options

[Drifta]

Greetings all,

I'm at my wicks end here. Just thought I'd throw the question out to see if anyone had had the same experience. I'm a SVP user and have switched to DP b/c well.. we all know what happened to SVP. After the long run around with trying to get DP3.11 to work with my non-motu usb interface and other hassles, i've finally got a system that will run. sort of. DP decides that when it's closed, it's going to take the whole machine with it.the machine freezes. no mouse, no keyboard, no movement of time.

i'm a bit upset with b/c i've been using mac for close to 10 years now and i'm just kinda fed up with this kind of behavior. then to boot, they switch the freakin' OS so now i'll have to upgrade to get the newer version of my music software... nickel and dime ya to death. even after the overpriced machines/software/hardware. i'm seriously thinking about switchign to a MS setup b/c i can get a bigger bang for my buck hardware-wise and software is less expensive as well... and well, it won't be so dang touchy. i'm glad that my hardware is external (usb etc.).

if you think this will help:
blue&white yosemite
g3 450MHz (i think that's what in there.. )
768MB ram
DP3.11 (yes i bought it)
M-Audio delta 44
midiman midisport 8x8

the thing is, it's a pain. a big pain.. is annoying sitting down to work out some ideas and have to deal with this stuff EVERY time.always searching the web for possible problems with something that seems to me to be fairly straight foward.

p.s. no, i do not want to upgrade to OSX because, i'm not going to go through this again and i don't wanna keep shelling out money for this. although if there is the possibility for a seemless transition to OSX then i guess i'd give it a go... but jeeeez is it frustrating as hell..

p.p.s. sorry folks for the rant.. just need some help and i guess needed to vent a bit as well. take care.
