I have an Intel Pentium 4 2.80 GHz with 2 GB of Ram. I am running a magma PCI expansion chassis (7 slot). I'm using 3 EDS 1000 pci cards in the magma as well as a professional audio card. Running 3 MECS, 2 blue, 1 black and 3 blue c16's. The MECs are synced with a lucid time clock in word clock mode 44.1. Previously we ran the clock outputs to each MEC instead of chaining the MECs. We ran Paris 3.0 on Windows 98 for 7 years and the system ran stable. I have now upgraded the system to windows xp professional and the CPU seems to be running stable. I bought the driver package for xp from ensoniq.ca. I loaded the system with all 3 EDS cards in place and the system worked except I could not record audio to card 2. When I pulled audio into card 2 it would not play back. I uninstalled Paris from the CPU and started with a fresh install of Paris with 1 card then 2 cards then 3 cards. That fixed the card 2 problem however now on track 1 of card 3 I'm experiencing a beep or burp sound during playback. This problem is only on track 1 of card 3. I am also having sync problems between my MECs. I disconnected MEC 2 and 3 from the time clock and chained them through MEC 1. So now the sequence goes as follows: time clock to MEC 1, MEC 1 to MEC 2, MEC 2 to MEC 3. This did not fix the problem. I have also reset the config file and checked to make sure there are no IRQ conflicts but nothing seems to work. I have tried about everything I can think of to trouble shoot this problem. I would not mind doing a clean install of Paris and starting the process over. If someone could please walk me through a working install step by step any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

You might try backing up your paris.cfg file and use the one I attached. It comes from my rig with a 7 slot magma. Yes, each MEC should be hooked to the Lucid directly. If you made any changes inside the Magma, be sure the ribbon cables are hooked up according to spec. I am sure someone can chime in. I don't have the doc with the wiring map handy.
