ok well, i got a virus the other day so i blasted my hard drive, but now i have win2k, and i cant use pro tools, the only software that works is cakewalk pa9, i dont like it but if it is all i can find ill use it, but some plug ins for compression and stuff, cuz right now i got the basic plug ins and analog x's gate, thats it. but if u know of any cheap software that works on windows 2000 professional, that would be awesome
