yes, ditto –

mine is a Dual Core 2Ghz G5, Final Cut 5.0.4, OS 10.4.7, with a Decklink HD – it crashes on startup –

This is a new setup, but it accidently got updated to Quicktime v7.1.3 – is that the culprit? i don’t mind downgrading if that IS the culprit, can anyone confirm that i won’t be wasting my time troubleshooting this by downgrading to v7.1.2 first? Ram config is ok, (although it’s only 1.5Gb instead of 2), and it’s sitting in the 3rd PCI-X slot, bye-the-way –
ta,
