Topic: HDSPE Expresscard pops and noise 10.6.4 / 2.72

I just upgraded to 10.6.4 and driver 2.72, and now whenever i have the expresscard and multiface plugged in to my MacBook Pro (15.4" Pre-Unibody 2.53ghz), the inputs show a lot of digital noise (as if the clocking was off, but the multiface is the only device connected and set to master)
I uninstalled the 2.72 driver by deleting the necessary files, then reverted back to driver 2.71, but the problem persists and I am unable to use the card now. Is it a problem with 10.6.4?

The expresscard / multiface works great in my mac pro (10.6.3 / 2.71), so it must be a software related issue. Please Help!

Thanks,
Danny

here's what it looks like (no programs are open, and nothing but the firewire and power cable are connected to the multiface):

Just a coincidence, really - the version numbers happen to be the same at the moment.
Gets me confused, too... fryingpan cool

...ah...ok...i didn't recognize the announcement of the new driver since it's not available via the "latest driver / download" page...
thanks!
