I now own a Hewlett Packard zd8230us notebook.

Unfortunately, it seems my M Box with PTLE 6.9 does not want to play nice with the HP's 915GP chipset (Funny though, my Fireface 800 and Cubase SX3 perform flawlessly). 9128 error as soon as I hit playback. Latencies anywhere from 80-150ms on M Box (Fireface 800 latency 1-5ms!).

A Digi article suggested a possible workaround by using a, "third party external high speed USB hub".

Does anyone know who Digi was referring to regarding, "third party"?

Are they just referring to something for notebooks like a common USB 2.0 card bus? Or is this a special application requiring a special card bus or hub?

Hyperthreading turned off and tracking to an external 7200 drive produced no change. I assume my issue is with the chipset but am somewhat baffled that PTLE would even launch and open a session with an incompatible chipset.

Any advice and recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you!
