Pro Tools error "The operating system held off"

Yea I'm new to pro tools but man i have learn a lot over the past couple days but i have been getting this same message when ever I'm recording or playingback most the time but I cant find a solution. "The operating system held off interrupts for too long. If this occures frequently, try increasing the "H/W buffer size".

Cut Time in Pro Tools

Can someone help me set up a click track in cut time. PT doesn't seem to have a tool for this.

I need four beats to the measure, with the click on two and four.

If I use 2/4 time, I only get two beats to the measure. With 4/4 I can only set the first beat for different accent, so I can't put an accent on two and four.

Pro Tools External HD issue

So, I installed a Mbox2 Mini on a pc with vista 32bit as the OS, only to realize after I installed it that the pc doesn't have a firewire port on it for an external HD.

Short of buying an actual pci card for the computer, is there a work around for this? I would just use a HD with USB 2.0, but that is expressly forbidden, in fact, I haven't even tried it.
