Upgrading a DIGI 002

I've got a DIGI 002 and am considering upgrading it. So far, I'm considering a Apogee MiniMe or the BlackLionAudio.com upgrade. I have a home production studio and track samples, keyboards, vocals, and guitar. I use a couple of Universal Audio A-610's, dbx 376 channel strip, and a Marquette Audio Labs AM-16 as my preamps . I don't usually track anything more than 2 channels at a time.

Best pre for my type of voice

Hello all

I am new to this forum. I am recording my own CD on pro tools at my home studio) mastered at ludwig's place this summer (saved up for that). I had a pal's api preamp but he took it with him to California.

I have a RODE ntk microphone (which I know is not "high-end " but I happen to like it). Am considering the upgrade to a u87 soon.

Which processes can I turn off?

I'm having trouble getting my latency down to a reasonable amount w/ out cpu spaz outs, so I checked the task manager and there's like 55 processes running all the time.
I have anti-virus turned off, but i'm pretty unsure about the rest of the stuff.

anybody know what's safe to turn off in order to save some cpu?

Thanks.

edit: i'm on xp by the way.
