Using the mkII (USB 2.0 version) with a laptop PC

I'm having syncronization problems with the mkII (the new USB 2.0 version) when I try to install it in a laptop pc. I get clicks, beeps, and silences. The CueMix console gives me back the following error message : "The CueMix is not in sync because the audio stream is not locked".
Does anybody knows if there is any known uncompatibility of the mkII with some kind of laptop pc.

Tascam USB 428...record button not working!

After many years of bitching about this Tascam nightmare...cause it has always been unpredictable in nature. Last night I wanted to record some tracks and found out the record button will not start my Cubase SX to recording. I can get Cubase to record only by clicking the record button on SCREEN. The other buttons REW..F FWD..STOP..PLAY work on the controller 428. Wonder what the deal is.

Live Monitoring via ASIO4ALL, Kristal, Audtion 1.5, USB MIC.

Forums

I finally figured out live, crisp monitoring with my crappy Soundmax Integrated Digital Card (optic out).

Kristal with ASIO4ALL driver and Adobe Audtion 1.5.

Input - Plain ol' USB Mic with no driver (default WDM driver)
Output - Roland's DM-20 Digital monitors (optic in/out)

M-audio usb pre and Cubase question..

First off all I am trying to do is record decent quality hip hop vocals. All I could afford was a m-audio mobile pre usb and a Shure sm58. I will be using Cubase sx3 to record into. I have hardly any experience with recording using computers at all so I have a few questions that might seem dumb but if you guys could help me out that would be tight.
