New PCI-424 Drivers: v.1.6.9.2
Please post your experiences with the new 1.6.9.2 PCI-424 drivers here. I will test this new driver as soon as I get home. But already there are a few people who solved all of their problems by installing these new drivers.

As you know, I've already posted about these new drivers, but just so feedback is all in the same thread, I'll post here too. This relates to the new drivers under Vista 64.
Please take note of the last point, as this has happened to me and others who have updated.

- Hardware units found at every boot - this was very intermittent under Vista 64 previously.
- Sonar will run at much lower latency before glitches with the new drivers.
- Drivers now support the WASAPI driver model in Sonar - old drivers didn't work in this mode.
- Audio just seems more resilient and less likely to glitch now.
- Even if you follow the driver update instructions to the letter, you may find one of the MOTU devices in device manager has an old driver - right click on it and choose to update the driver - it will find the new driver on your system and fix the problem.
