thanks for the tips :)

i tried 64studio and i can't remember properly but i think i tried demudi too
but i had sata problems ... my hdd wasn't detected and i didn't want to waste so much time to figure it out ... or get a driver ...

dynebolic worked verygood from cd.
over 10 minutes @ 12 tracks i had no xruns. (with 2.1)

but after i docked and nested 2.2
i got alot more ... :(

thanks, bye.
