hi all,

It's been a while since I posted here...I've only sporadically used my PARIS
rig in the past couple years (1 card/MEC/24-8 in/out on a dedicated MAC G4
Quicksilver). Never had problems before, but today PARIS won't boot up.

I get a 'Error initializing PARIS Engine Error code -43/ffffffd5

Tried replacing config file, reinstalled PARIS on another drive, cleaned
things up, etc all with the same problem. Help!

Is this the one when your Interfaces are not plgged in or MEC turned off?

the power is on and i also checked all cables. i tried it w/ the MEC off as
a test and the same thing came up - i'm going to open the box and reseat
the card, to see if that does anything.

Reseating is a one possibility. You can also reseat the daughterboard but
if it was the daughterboard I think you'd get a different message.

another thing to try:

My original paris card developed a case of worn contacts, and got a similar
(though I can't say if it was exactly the same) message.

I resilvered the worn contacts with a silver contact pen from Radio Shack
and it has worked fine ever since.

I reseated the 1000 card in the PCI slot and now i'm getting a similar 'Engine
Failure' message but with different error code numbers - alternating between
2/2 and 7/7...turning off the MEC brings up the same message.

Is the daughterboard in the MEC? Is there anything in there that could come
loose?

thanks

no, the daughter card is the small card attached to the main eds card.
do yo have the eds1000 or the eds1000+ (that's the one with the
daughter card attached)?
