today for the first time, EVER SSL crashed on me at the radio station. i was playing a track that worked and isnt currupt. my CPU usaage was at 100 Percent. both decks audio drop out both, decks where spinnning in reverse and back and forth. this ever happen to anyone?

No applications running in the background or something? Strange...

nothin man, my LT isnt shitty ether. i restarted SSL and was fine but it sure sucked when when the audio dropped. awaiting any ideas.

maybe the USB cable came loose?

nah the decks where still showing. if that happens you get the interface not connected with the !

make sure your file is not corrupt even if you think it isn't-it happened to me before

nothing in this life is perfect... but anyways, think than it could be a computer or OS problem...

yeah its not the file. BELIEVE ME, it worked fine after the restart. i think theres something with the new HD. is a 4200 RPM enough?

Yes, 4200 rpm is enough.

i thought so i also had sp 2 installed. i went back to SP 1 just now. i guess ill see what happens tom.

Could it have to do with your CPU load being 100% most of the time? If there are any power saving things active they could throttle your CPU down. Does your laptop runs hot?

nope, runs cool. ihave fans under it. all my power settings are set up for always on , never off.
