Need you help build Paris around a laptop !!
Please note that my laptop does not have PCMCIA or cardbus...
Only usb 3.0 and usb 2.0... and if anyone has ever searched this taking out the dvd recorder there can be a SATA controller there !So maybe attach there a card converter whatever to connect a Virtuavia maybe pci extender ? Any help appreciated !
As a second solution I have a spare laptop although not I7 , that has a pcmcia cardbus and NOT expresscard ! Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. My Paris system is a 3 card system. Thanks
Dimitrios

Hi Dimitrios,

From what I understand, you'll need an expresscard slot. I did a lot of digging looking for ways to get an EDS card to work with a mac mini, and I didn't find anything that was USB3.

I've gotten PARIS up and running on a Dell 1525 with the virtua via chassis, and it appeared to work. I didn't play or record any audio, but the app stared and closed fine. I could test it some more if that would help. If I can ever stop spending every free minute on the ASIO driver, I might even do some recording with it.

You might be able to find one used for around $100 US. I think we may have the same shipping cost problem, though, not being in the US.

I hope this helps.

Mike

I know this is a little old, but I just got PARIS working with the virtua via express card in a Lenovo T530. I haven't stress tested it yet, but it plays audio fine. The T530 is fantastic!

I had to disable a power option in the bios that turns off power to PCIe channels to conserve power. I had almost given up when I found that.

Next stop is testing with Windows 10...
