Hi-ho.
I am still having trouble with my Paris rig. In an effort to simplify things,
I only have one card installed, with an MEC attached, internal clocking.
Basically, my problems are down to two:
1.The "now-line" freezes, or more actually begins stuttering in extremely
slow-motion, almost glacial. I can still change windows, and I am able to
save and close, then re-open Paris with success.
2.On starting Paris, I get an error message: "I/O modules used in this patch
setting not avaiable in this configuration of Paris. Resulting audio may
be different than when saved." This will pop up 2 or 4 times, and then when
I push "play" no audio is heard. Then I close, reopen, and then things work
for a while.
I have made some tweaks to the configuration with some success. The errors
are happening less and less, but they still pop up.
Anybody?
Jimmy

Post your paris cfg. Also make sure you don't have IRQ conflicts (check bios
on bootup) and that you don't have power supply or heat problems. Get a
fan blowing on that sucka or monitor hard drive / cpu temps to make sure
drives are below 35 degrees C.

What OS you running Jim? Yea, kinda sounds like you have some funky PCI
buss traffic goin on there, did you try strippin down to a basic config, vid
card, EDS1000.
Check IRQ sharing, see whats using what.
Good luck bro

Repeat after me:
IRQ!! IRQ!! IRQ!!
This sounds exactly like the EDS card is sharing and interrupt with the AGP
slot.

I couldn't find any place where it indicated which IRQ the AGP was assigned.
The IRQ page had all IRQs assigned to "PCI", and beneath that all the PCI
slots all assigned to "AUTO". On another page the serial port was assigned
to IRQ 4, and the parallel port was assigned to IRQ 7. So I assigned the PCI
slots to other numbers.
Am I on the wrong track here?

Hmmm.....well .......letsee.........ASUS boards normally will have the AGP
sharing an IRQ with two PCI slots, basically making these worthless for
anything else.
How many PCI slots does your mobo have?
If it's a 5 slot board and it's similar to an AMD board, chances are that
PCI slots 1 and 5 are shared with the AGP and the firewire port (thus making
FW audio interfaces iffy also if using the onboard FW)
PCI slot 2 may share with your LAN controller
PCI #3 may share with onboard RAID and SATA controller
PCI 4 may not share with anything.
This is the way the ASUS A8V mobo is configured but it's for AMD CPU's.
Do you have the manual? All of this is listed in chapter 2 under the heading
Interrupt Assignments. It should be noted for Intel mobo's as well.
If it's 6, try putting the EDS card in PCI 2, 3, 4 or 5
If it's 5, try PCI slot 1,

Sounds like video card sharing an IRQ, concur with consensus on that.

I used to get this a lot working with other studios... basically, they'd
have different Input/Output modules than I have. If you repatch in the bay
and resave, this will probably go away and you should be able to hear the
audio. It's also possible that you changed your I/O physical configs from
the last save? One more possible... it lost an interface in the boot.

I previously had an Asus 5 PCI-slot board with 4 EDS cards, no troubles,
whatsoever.
This is a 4 PCI-slot board. I've tried the 1-card setup in every PCI-slot
with no success.
You seem to be saying that 2 of my PCI slots might be useless to me? No
matter my attempts to reassign IRQs in the BIOS?
The BIOS does give me the option to let Windows XP assign IRQs, instead of
the BIOS doing so.....
Yes, I have the manual, but I can make no sense of the "Interrupt
Assignments" page in relation tgo my problem.

What does "lost an interface in the boot" mean? Bad connection? Interface?
Never happened to me in 7 years....

Take my rig for example.... 2 MEC's, each with an adat and one with an 8 in
and 8 out. Both have IF-2's on them. If I reverse them (card A and card C)
on the physical connections, I get that error. If I remove an IF-2 to put on
a portable rig, same error. If I change 'anything' in the hardware, same
error.
In the days of beta testing the XP driver it would intermittently lose an
interface, causing same error. I know that the hardware detection is tied
directly to the CPU speed, and Thoman had to play with that quite a bit to
get the timing right for faster CPU's (at that time, about an AMD 1900+
era). I believe this is also why most of us are getting shafted on a 2nd
adat card in any given MEC. If you're running a much faster box than before,
it's possible that your CPU speed is screwing with hardware initialization
enough to intermittently drop an interface, technically. Try underclocking
your CPU if you can, see if that clears things up. Of course, kill
hyperthreading if you haven't already.
Or if the PPJ came from another rig/different system config of the same rig,
sometimes paris would freak and just disconnect the audio output because it
couldn't figure it out in the alloted time to boot, or initialize the
software to the hardware interfaces. That one is easy to fix - clear the
patchbay and resave.
Make sense?
AA
BTW, what kind of video card are you using? Could be that it's hogging up
resources. If the card will run on a native Windows XP driver, I'd go there
if I were you.

As a side note, my Asus MX800 motherboard manual is WRONG regarding how irqs
are assigned. I crashed for freaking season before I paid close attention
to the boot up screen and SAW what irqs were being shared. After the correction
it totally fixed my crashing. GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!

It's an old Matrox card. I will try to uninstall the Matrox drivers.
In fact, the ppj originated on Swen's computer, so maybe that's it.
I had not yet disabled hyperthreading, though it had occured to me. Good
one.
All good points, bet we'll get that problem fixed.

Okay, on the IRQ page in the manual, it has two sections:
1. "Standard interrupt assignments", which list IRQ numbers and their
"standard function". (This section does list 7 "IRQs are usually available
for PCI devices")
2. "IRQ" assignments for this motherboard", which graphs various PCI slots
or USB controllers as "nil", "shared", or "used" against letters of the
alphabet.
I don't know how to use these two sets of data to resolve my problem. They
seem incompatible. I feel ignernt.

Use the second section that shows what are shared. Then make sure your EDS
cards are NOT on them. For example, turn off onboard audio in bios and
now you can use the slot that shares with onboard audio. Any device that
you are using like AGP video you DO NOT want an EDS card to be on a shared
slot.
On boot up check to make sure that the black screen that flashes by shows
this correctly.

I guess I don't understand what the Alphabetized row indicates. In other
words, if PCI slot 1 "shared" with 'F', what does that mean? What is it
shared with?

It looks like another messed up Asus manual. I downloaded the manual
and on page 2-18 it has that pic. I would turn off Com1 (irq4), floppy
(irq 6), lpt1 (irq 7), Serial port, turn off onboard audio and USB,
Keep the LAN on so you can network but I would try only slots 3 and 4
only first. Notice how they don't even show audio sharing with
anything. This diagram is craptastic.
And turn off Hyper Threading.
Do ME and favor and call them on the phone and ask then what the hell is
this diagram means. Simply, what slots share with what? Inquiring minds !

I may have to switch the setting to "parallel" instead of switching off

I'll report back.

I disabledall but the com1 and lpt 1. Can't find them.
Bad news is, and this is really bad news, computer won't boot up. On that
blcak page that n ow doesn't flash by so fast at all, I get the error
message "USB device over current status detected". Then the computer shuts
down. Won't boot up, won't let me go to BIOS to fix it.

That overcurrent message is a bugfix that creates a bug. You can likely fix
it by going to the ASUS website and finding the bios that immediately
preceeds the one where they have added the *USB overcurrent* warning. If you
flash back to this bios, you should be good. This happened to me so I know
the drill firsthand.
Sorry you're having so much grief.

All you need do is reset the BIOS by shorting out the relevant jumper on the
motherboard...it's in the manual.

I wish it were so, but I can't find anything of the sort. I have no access
to a computer with a floppy drive so I can't flash the BIOS with anything.
However, maybe DJ was right, cuz the most recent version of the BIOS on the
Asus site was for correcting the "USB overcurrent" thingie. I don't
understand why I can't just use a CD-ROM, dammit. The wife's laptop has no
floppy drive.
Dammit! I just wanna make music!

The only thing I can see for this is to "clear the Real Time Clock RAM in
CMOS". This would "clear the CMOS memory of date, time, and system setup
parameters by erasing the CMOS RTC RAM data".
This involves removing the onboard battery and moving jumper cap from pins
1-2 to pins 2-3., then back to pins 1-2, then reinstalling the battery. It
says you have to enter the BIOS and re-enter data.
Is this the thing to do?

As a guy who has spent way too much of his life on computers and crappy hardware
I can sympathize. You'll be through it soon, even if you have to burn the
motherboard and buy a brand that can document the one to one relationship
between slots and irqs! Seeing the MX800 manual being flat wrong and seeing
your manual I'm thinking they are pretty clueless over such a critical core
function. Idiots !

I just shitcanned my wireless doorbell. Fucker only lasted 3 years. I'm
going with a door knocker, I bet I get 50 out of it! I have gotten more
selective of which technologies I'm buying into. I still have never had
a cell phone, palm pilot or ipod and I don't see one any time soon. Why
can't they even put AM on the damn things? Today my friends Ipod got hosed
up OS, I didn't know that was possible and know he needs a power supply/not
usb power to fix it. hahaha Go APPLE !!!!

I can't freaking afford another motherboard. At least I would hope my
brand-new RAM and CPU would work on another MB?
Jeeeeeeesus.
I'm half-Jewish. I can say "Jeeeeeeesus" with impunity, right?
