EDS cards not connected properly [message #109557]

Hello everyone,

I'm having difficulty troubleshooting this problem.

I had the Paris system working before my PC broke down. After getting the program back and plugging in the MEC and my Magma chassis with the same configuration, I keep getting the message that the EDS cards are 'not connected properly.' Paris will launch after this message but as it warns in the error message, there are severe playback issues for me.

I have tried using just one EDS card and I seem to get a 1/1 error. I have tried several PCI slots in my chassis, same thing. I've tried switching the cable around between my two cards, but then I get the message that nothing is connected to the master card, when plugged into the other.

I seem to have only three of the small cables connecting the cards, which are plugged into the 1, 2 and 4 terminals, so there's nothing on the third one, am I missing a cable somehow?

Any help would be massively appreciated,

Thanks

OK, so I have got past this problem (by Reading the effing manual Embarassed

) My connectors were in the wrong way. I don't remember having this problem before my computer broke down, that's why I didn't check the connections at first...

However,

After playing around in Paris for a bit, I started to get the following message upon startp:

ASSERTION FAILED NativeFxlibrary.cpp:191((LibraryHeader*)libData)->tag==kLibTag

I searched the forum for this problem and tried moving my plugins folder to another location to no avail. The only change I've made on my computer within that time is to install a Wave editor program, so I will try to uninstall that I suppose?

Any other ideas would be great, thanks again

Stick testing with one card for now, use an eraser and clean the metal PCI pins as they get dirty over time and can loose connection. They will shine up quick so you'll know they are clean and remember to carefully clean the pins while holding the outside of the EDS card only, do not get any skin oil on it. Once clean re-seat the PCI card than see if that fixes your issue.

I don't know if this helps, but on several occasions, my Paris.cfg file has inexplicably been wiped clean. Check that the file still has all the settings intact. MAKE A BACKUP!! You can open it with any text editor.
Regards,
Kim.
