| First of all, you should NEVER hot plug ANY F/W device into or out of any Mac while
it's running. Thats a great way to burn up your F/W port.
You must also use your Disc Utility to repair permissions each time you install any new software or drivers.
I'm having the same problem with my G5 running Protools M-Powered.
I'm thinking it must be an Interface Driver/OS Version or firmware issue because nothing else has caused this in the past.
It has also been well documented that Mac Pro RAM should be installed in matched sets of 4 DIMMS, preferably all matching if you're loading it up.
You may want to run your hardware test from your OS Disk to see if any of your DIMMS have a problem.
I just asked one of my ADC member friends about this and he confirms Apple
is having issues with external devices under 10.5.2, so it's bigger than just Apogee.
