hello -

so - i took the plunge. bought an eds and a mec. borrowed an xp machine and purchased the scherzo drivers.

eds card is seated in PCI slot 3.
new hardware was found by winxp
scherzo driver was installed per instructions, and succeeded
paris was installed (using 2.1)

mec is on and connected to eds via scsi 2 cable.

I run paris and blam! - "Error Initializing Paris Engine. Error code 1/1"

Unhandled exception c0000005
At address: 00378007

This is bringing back bad memories of an experience i had with a faulty EDS card.

is there a troubleshooting FAQ where i might try and diagnose this?

anyone know of an obvious causes?

there's more information on the error :

"The instruction at "0x00378007" referenced memory at "0x00000304". The memory could not be read"

and then the program crashes

ok.. a little progress but still having problems.

I somehow misunderstood the need for the effects subsystem. Thought this was only necessary for 3.0.

So i took a shot at installing it, then overwritting the Paris_StudioControlLibrary.dll" in windows/system32

so - i no longer get the 1/1 error. Rather i get an error that states :

"Error in initializing Paris Engine. There are not enough free resources available".

still need help. In the meantime will be searching the wiki for info.

thanks again

Got the appmessages - and it's reporting tthat it did not find paris midi out. ?????

_pesyncInitializeMIDI: did not fine PARIS MIDI out. [0/$0]
_pesyncInitialize:error in initializing MIDI. [XXXXX/$XXXX]

and then the "There are not enough free resources available" message appears after that, and then there is additional info in the appmessages after that.

anyone have any theories?

ok.. looks like for some reason, the beta 3 drivers for scherzo worked for me while the paid version did not. Perhaps it was something i did during setup.

Nevertheless, i wiped everything clean and started with beta 3 drivers, and now everything is working.

sorry for the message board clutter.

no worries, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

I'd guess you did something different in setup the second time, that's the only explanation that accounts for the beta drivers working better than the release The "bugs/troubleshooting" section of the Wiki has a lot of the tips collected over years.

The C000005 error's been seen in a number of situations and while the solution's varied they all have this in common - as you've discovered, they don't seem to point to hardware issues. Glad you got it sorted!
