yes... the reason that your system is P.o.S. and crashes all the time is because your running a PCI-324 correct? if my guess is right then you are experience what me and 3 other users experienced, and what MOTU is denying is happening.. the PCI-324 system does NOT work with OS X.. the drivers = SUCK and after 30 minutes you will kernal panic.. its a problem with OS X and the audio card.. from reliable sources there is NOTHING that motu can do currently and apple would have to change things for them to accomadate the card.. as far as i know the PCI 424 card works FLAWLESSLY with the OS X drivers..
i just upgraded for 300 bucks from a pci-324 to 424 card and have not crashed since...
if your using a MOTU card and OSX its the ONLY way to go, without having problems

Thanks - I have a 324 also and have the same problem. In the past I was told you could not purchase a 424 card alone? where is this now possible? Do you have a web link or phone# ? ThanksTuesday, April 26 2005 @ 02:14 PM PDT

the pci 324 isn't compatible with OSX, i had loads of hassle with clicks in audio and whilst playing virtual instruments, you can upgrade ur card to a pci 424 (G5 compatible) card aslong as you have a proof of purchase or you registered originally with motu, just goto www.motu.com and look for the upgrades link.....Wednesday, April 27 2005 @ 08:39 AM PDT

The PCI 324 only caused Kernel Panics on some of the newer G4's. I had KP's on a Dual 1.42 MDD but I now have a PCI 424 in that with no problems in over a year. I put the 324 in a MDD Dual 867 a few weeks ago and I haven't had any KP's yet.BTW, MOTU has pulled the driver.
