You are joking, right? My point was what supported will work as advertised on Mac. If it doesn't work, the vender have to fix it, because the environment variables are far more controlled by Apple. When a driver doesn't work because of Apple bug, which we have seen on CA and OpenGL, Apple provides the workaround to the vendor. I know this because I do quite a few DSP beta testing and I am also a larking member of ADC. My Dell Dimension P-III 1GHz which was originally released with Win2K is still running great with my Win2KSP4, and I get no VxD error nor BSD error whatsoever. These two soft samplers I mentioned had been working fine until the latest update. The programmer claims the video driver for my video card, which is onboard, must be too dated. The real problem is that the older version no longer runs even after I cleared all the registry because the installer altered the shared lib (another thing to complain about Windows that doesn't happen on Mac). My only way out at this point is to restore C: image. Instead, I ditched the products. -- - Hiro Hiroaki Honshuku, A-NO-NE Music, Boston, MA <http://a-no-ne.com> <http://anonemusic.com> _______________________________________________ Finale mailing list [email protected] http://lists.shsu.edu/mailman/listinfo/finale
