From Mac To Windows Part 3 - Issues & How To Fix Them

In this Pro Tools Expert video forming part 3 of the From Mac To Windows series,  Technical Editor James Ivey talks to Richard "Rich" Rogers of Workstation Pros about all things Windows, in particular, James' WSP HPZ840 Windows 10 machine. 6 months have passed since James switched from Mac to Windows and he and Rich talk about some of the minor issues that James faced and some of the features that make the HP Z840 such a powerhouse for the media creative. 

One of the issues James experienced in his transition to Windows is that Windows does not have a version of "Quick-look". Rich has found a utility called Seer which provides the quick-look functionality to the Windows platform and best of all it's free to download. 

James and Rich also talk about some of the future development that they have planned for James' Pro Tools computer including the addition of a raid of Angelbird SSD drives and RAM and processor upgrades.
