Lightjockey issues on a Macbook Pro

Hey folks

 

I've been using LJ on my mac for awhile now and I've been rewriting the libraries at work (bunch of new fixtures added) all last week with no problems. Today, I connected the Martin USB-DMX interface II to my mac, (it's bootcamped into Windows XP SP3 with the correct LJ drivers installed) the laptop immediately pulled up blue screen of death, fatal error in the siudi.sys file.

 

Once my computer rebooted, it allowed LJ to boot and recognized the DMX dongle, but the USB connection light wouldn't turn on and wouldn't communicate with the light fixtures. It also sent five of the twelve American DJ LED Par 64 Pros into color changing strobe patterns that I couldn't control.

 

I've connected the dongle to a Dell Inspiron 1300 with the same edition of LJ and the system responds without fail.

 

Opening Device Manager on the Inspiron shows the dongle as "Martin USB/DMX Interface II - DMX Out (Unified Driver)", says the device is working properly and has the driver listed as v1.20.0.0, dated 3/25/02. On the bootcamped Mac Pro, it simply shows up as "Martin DMX interface Launcher", the device is working properly, with the same driver version and date.

 

I've restarted multiple times, bluescreened five times trying to uninstall and reinstall drivers and am just generally at my wits end. Do you have any suggestions?

 

Fixture Configurations:

5x Martin Roboscan 518 Mode 3

4x Martin MiniAC Profile Mode 2/4

12x American DJ Par 64 LED Pro, 7 cha.
