Hi everyone,
I have owned a paris system since just before it got discontinued by emu (doh!). I love it but some of the issues I have with it are frustrating.
I had it stored while I moved. built a project studio space and now am resurrecting the system to record some demos for my band and improve my recording and mixing skills.
I just registered on this site recently but had checked in occasionally in the past just to see if the paris commumnity was alive and kicking! I am impressed by all the work that has been done by you guys to keep it going!
I have a few issues I hope you can help with. I have looked at the wiki page but haven't seen the exact issues listed, though some are similar: I will give some details on my rig, then a few questions: I had someone build me a new machine back in the day:
Windows XP, home edition version 2002, service pack 2
AMD athlon 1.14 ghz (single core I believe) 1 GB RAM
Paris 3.0
2 paris eds1000 cards, 1 8in on the master mec
I believe the driver I have is dated 7/30/2002. version 3.0.3.0, is this Beta 3?
1) Do I need to update to service pack 3 for XP?
2) I suspect I need to update my driver. What version do you recommend for my system? I will gladly purchase it.
3) I get a blue screen error like "driver_corrupted_mmpool" "beginning physical memory dump" (I don't like my machine "dumping"). This sometimes occurs upon exit, or the program locks and I have to shut down the computer. I will get this message: paris.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry...and so on. Then the blue screen message noted above.
4) Another error I get(most often in the editor window I think) : assertion failed file cache.c:462offset>=0&&off<p->count.
5) Has any one experienced this this: Upon booting paris, (and this happens only randomly, not every time) I get a loud repetitive chirping coming from my powerered monitors, but it stops after I open a project, and things generally work fine after that. It comes out of the headphone jack as well I think.
6) More issues seem to occur after I've been editing a while, is this common?
Any help will be appreciated. It seems updating the driver might be the first step?
p.s. I should probably mention that I bought a eds card from east coast music mall when I was expanding my system, and when I received it, it was covered with this white scale, as if it had literally been sitting on the east coast, I mean on the beach. I paid quite a bit for it too. I cleaned it as best I could and installed it, as I didn't know if I would find another one, at that time, and it seemed to work so I kept it.
Thanks in advance for any advice!
Sincerely, John

Thank you Kerry and Will, and Mike as well!
Mike emailed me and gave me some suggestions.
I am going to work on implementing them and then download his latest driver and I'll go from there.
Again, I am very impressed with your work on this site. Thanks for keeping it and Paris going.
