I'm blowing out my rig here and installing everything new. In the next few
I'll be at SP1a. I've never put SP2 on my paris rig, never had a reason to
and things like firewall and DEP made me nervous.
I already have it back up and running with the required 3 displays, 2 EDS
cards, SBS 7 slot and a few PCI cards (USB, 1394, NIC, etc...). I want to
keep this build simple and to the point and put the UAD/VSTi thing of on
another machine so I'm more concerned about stability than things taking
away CPU time (xp1900+, Asus A7s333). The heavy lifting for virtuals will be
on the other box, yet to be built. Probably will also use a crossover cable
to feed tracks back and forth as necessary. Machine will not ever touch
internet.
I wanted to poll the group on one thing:
Has anyone found a reason that they -should- install Service Pack 2 to Paris
for?

Hi Aaron,
If you are going to be using it strictly as a Paris rig then you won't
need SP2. You may need to install Direct X 9.0c depending on the plug
ins you are using though.

I suspected as much. I have another more specific thing I'm looking at.
Looks like the SBS is a bust with the SiS chipset, so I need to optimize.
Time to try sumpthin new:
What do I need to connect 1394 between machines for transferring wav data?

HI Aaron,
If you already have firewire PCI card or have on board firewire then
these will work great.
external :

Internal:
http://www.granitedigital.com/catalog/pg31_firewiresmarthots wapbay.htm
If you have networking enabled on you system the you could just share a
drive or folder between the two machines.

Hi Aaron,
My Paris rig (home project studio) is the same as I use for all my stuff
including email and known trusted interenet sites like banking. I put on
SP2 and no conflicts. I'm not considering Vista at this point in time. The
only problem I've had with XP since 2003 is the HP and I turn it off when
running Paris. Sorry, I'm so late with the post. Been busy. Have a great
new year. Wayne

Happy New Year bro'

No snags what-so-ever on the install and you can uninstall it if you run
into problems. Not sure what DEP is. I was running 3.0 standard and now
3.0 w/o pace. No problems. I am the only user so I have administrator
rights and don't use any user switching or log in passwords. Have a great
new year. Wayne
