Wow thanks for all the info. It sucks that this laptop/magma system is causing so much trouble. Because the M60 is so expensive for me right now, I am opting for a desktop system with a very small case so it can be much more portable. It will smoke the laptop anyhow. I'm still sad I can't get the ...

Well it's beginning to look like it's a much better idea getting an older Dell Inspirion 8000/8100 since you know it works with the card. That is of course unless you have any new news. :smile:

I also just wrote Creamware support to get a list of suitable laptops that they know work with SFP ...

So I shouldn't buy yet? What is the problem with SX? since that is my sequencer too! Should I buy and older P3?

Cool thanks a lot!

Yo dehuszar, if you could get back to me with your system specs asap I'd appreciate it since I can order under "Small Business" and get a rebate which runs out tomorrow the 3rd. I can order 256mb memory and get an upgrade to 512mb free! Also should I get the faster 60gb 7200rpm boot drive?

Thanks ...

Cool so the system works! What are the specs that you ordered so I know what to get when I order. Is this the notebook with the Pentium M processor? Also do I get the Magma 32 bit/33mhz cardbus to PCI expansion? The one for $895? Also where did you buy this? I need lots of help cause I'm new at this ...

Cool, thanks for the quick replies. Maybe I'll just go for the older Dell Inspirion 8000 P3? At least I know it will work and it could save me some cash. I really would like newer, faster technology though. hmmm, decisions, decisions.

So you think the right Toshiba or IBM would be better? How do I find the right one? Might it be easier for me since I have a Pulsar 2 and you have a Pulsar 1?

Cool man. Let's cross our fingers and hope this setup works. So this is a Dell Precision M60 setup? I'm just curious why you're going with Dell. Have you tried all the others and none of them work? I'm just wary about ordering from big impersonal companies like Dell. Why is it that the card is SO ...

Well it looks like I'm going to be able to puchase the laptop very soon along with the MAgma setup! I need help here on what to get so it all works correctly! I'm tired of lugging my tower system everywhere and afraid it might get damaged in the process!Should I call Creamware directly to find out ...

This happens to me every so often as well. All I do is restart my computer and it usually goes away. Strange huh? Is this something I should be concerned about?

So people are using the Pulsar cards with either Dell or Gateway professional laptops with P3 motherboards and Magma breakout boxes. Anyone know of other manufacturers laptops that will work with P4 motherboards in conjunction with the Pulsar? I'm looking to get a laptop too and want to hook up my ...

hmmm I wonder what I should do? I guess I can try moving the card without reinstalling and see if that works. If not I guess I'll have to reinstall. Thanks for the help.

Does this mean I need to uninstall then reinstall the card or can I just move it?

...I am getting an "Installation Error" prompt when I try to start my computer. It says something like "Hardware Revision 16 not supported. Cannot start Pulsar." Even stranger is if I restart my computer sometimes it will work fine. I looked in the Quick Start Manual and it says most likely it is an ...

Well uninstalling then reinstalling seemed to work. Strange?!?!?! Thanks for the help. Hopefully I won't run into many other problems. (Yeah right.)

Cool thanks. I will try uninstalling and then reinstalling to see if that helps.

Unfortunately I am not very well versed in this stuff so forgive me if I don't have all the information. The processor is a Pentium 3 500mhz, I'm not sure what the motherboard is but I got the computer from Micron. I ...

I'm trying to install a used Pulsar 2 I recently bought. I know about the ASPI player problem and have installed it. I try to update the driver for the board and XP warns me that the driver is not digitally signed. I proceed anyhow. The computer restarts and windows gives me a prompt that says "The ...
