ra204: os re-install + soundcard questions

[phosphor]

howdy.
I bought the ra204 and love it. couple of questions.

has anyone wiped and installed xp pro or win2k.. any driver issues or gotchas?

I need to insert my delta 66 sound card - any one have any experience of this hardware combinations?

what is the existing soundcard? i loaded cubase but playback is not smooth, the sound is slow and jumps/stutters. anyone have experience using recording tools on vaio desktops.. tips greatly appreciated.

Wow what do they do with an RA204? Video teaching?

Partly - video streaming teaching data with one system so the 500GB is useful for that - the other system I used alongside my VAIO with firewire to transfer my bits and pieces - and the memorystick too - funny the envious looks I got when using my system!:smileylaugh:

In addition, the RA204 is attached to the fingerprint digitiser, a Canon PowerShot G5 camera, a Raman Spectroscope, a HP 1300 LaserJet, firewire link to my system (temporary sadly), a Mach III glass analyser and a network... All work beautifully!:smileylaugh:

This has made me want one even more - but some of the cool software was removed...:smileysad:

Wow that sounds cool.

The one my friend has in his music studio is cool too. It does some recordings and some of it is used with Reason.
