But aside from this regular issue the post above i might say i have had some experience with. Am using Amt8 & unitor 8, Amt8 is connected via usb to pc then unitor to Amt8. SD locked on loading unitor module so didnt use it, have drivers for Amt8 loaded and 16 ports selected. Runs fine with Logic 5.5.1 Still on Sp1 though as the logic box is not on the net so see no real need to upgrade unless someone can point something out? Regards Richard
