FIREWIRE HARD DRIVE & CUBASE 5.0 VST PROBLEMS

  • Apple G4 400 OS 9.0.4
  • Firewire drive using Heat Utilities 1394 Driver

  • Serious problems have arisen associated with Firewire being unable to complete reading or writing from Cubase 5 VST. Although sound files are playable from other utilities, e.g. instant player etc.
  • The drive simply hangs the system and we've been unable to use the drive.
  • Heat Utilities test showed drive OK on all 3 partitions, also optimised using Heat Utilities.
  • Norton Disk Doctor cannot complete Checking Media hanging after checking about 70%.
    Does anyone have experience of these problems and a way of overcoming them? Please reply to johnwesleybarker@madsafish.com .
    Thank you.
