Cool doc how's your PC running your DAW software with the extra ram now

I haven't done any extensive testing, but my DAW PC definitely seems to be happier running my DAW software with the extra Ram now, I'm back to using my Digi002 Firewire Audio Interface, and so far I haven't experienced any system crashes, or DAW software crashes...touchwood, I'm still going to go ahead and buy a couple of PCI Firewire cards with Texas Instruments Chipsets on them though, I have noticed an improvement in performance after I removed a PCI card with some USB 2.0 ports on it, it had a VIA Chipset on it, I don't know if it was contributing to the instability issues I had been experiencing though, but you never know.


I read somewhere that sometimes Hardware issues can manifest themselves as software issues and vice-versa.


I'm starting to think that there may be some issues with my Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 Firewire Audio Interface because I downloaded the latest driver update from the Focurite and installed it, but even though both the Locked and FW Active Leds on the Saffire Pro 40 were lit, the driver software said that no device was connected, I'm thinking that the Firewire ports on my Saffire Pro 40 may have gone a bit flaky, or there may be something wrong with the Firewire interface circuitry in the Saffire Pro 40, it could even be a firmware issue.
