(apart from the workspace browser crashing the entire system) I went to open up a session that I was working on yesterday and I get an Initialization Error Code: -7, which is then followed by an application error (0xc0000142) I have tried re-installing Pro Tools from the original disk, from the 9.0.2 download and more.. but can't get Pro Tools to open, Anyone who could help, it would be much appreciated as I am currently running a few post sessions and really need my DAW back online! Is there any way of contacting Avid directly ?
