Pro Tools 8.0.5 won't even open anymore

Hey all, I've recently been working in Logic 9 and loving it, but I recently decided to go back and remix some of my past work in Pro Tools.. however, I found that My ProTools won't open anymore!

I've re-downloaded the update and re-installed Pro Tools.... gotten the drivers, everything that would most likely be the cause of the problem, but I cannot for the life of me work out what is wrong!?

It worked perfectly 2 or so months ago before I made the change full time to Logic.. and now it's almost as though PT is having a winge that I've found a new audio love!..


Either way it's extremely annoying. If anyone has the answer to this that'd be so awesome!!





Cheers


James

Perhaps yeah.


I found this online, but the site has been removed:
