Tracking 8 channels at once after about 30 mins I get assertion error. Any
ideas? I have NO plugins and this is a fresh xp install. I'm back on win98
but xp would have been nice. You look like a real idiot when you have 6
people playing instruments and you tell them, "Sorry we just crashed, take
a break".

I havent used 98 in a long time, but that sounds like it. I think the info
was also in the Paris optimizing for 98 in the treepad information guide.
Here is a snippet from there:
Optimizations to get faster disk throughput, minimize cpu utilization and
get more tracks, DX and VST effects in PARIS.
* Disable any applications that launch at boot-up by removing their
shortcuts from your Windows/Start Menu / Programs / StartUp folder.
* Enable / Check DMA: Control Panel / System / Device Manager for each hard
drive and cdrom. Check that the hard drive name is shown or dl the right
drivers.
* Auto Insert Notification: Device Manager / CD-ROM/Properties, un-check
'Auto insert notification'. Attention: Some CD-ROM burn programs activate
the notification automatically when they are started, without telling you
this.
* Buffer DMA Channels: If you're using an IDE drive, Control Panel / System
/ Device Manager. Expand system devices, select Direct Memory Access
Controller and click Properties. Click the Settings tab. Use the up arrow to
increase the Reserve DMA buffer try a setting of 32k or 64k.
* Disable Read Ahead Optimization: Device Manager, Performance tab / File
System. Set Read-ahead optimization slider to None.
* Disable Write Behind Caching: Device Manager / Performance / File System /
Troubleshooting tab / check Disable write-behind caching for all drives.
* Network server performance profile: Device Manager / Performance / File
System / Typical Role "Network Server"

My os drive had the cacheing turned on and my audio had it off. I have them
both off now and had paris record 16 channels for 1.5 hours straight in xp
last night with NO crashes. This might be good!
Thanks,
John
