If you can get them ever to reply to email so you can register your old cards. I'm giving up on them. Bye.

Still no news. Suppose you had a paying gig where you depend on them.

It's 10 years since I last used it. Been in the bin so long. I'm 3 pc's further and running linux since the last 6-7 years. So I didn't really kept backups from that time. They micht be on a cd somewhere or worse: on a floppy.

I did receive the automatic confirmation email. Kept it simple, saying I was registering the card again nad it had been registered previously under the same name, listing the numbers and my details. I'll give them another week.

Lucky I'm not using this card professionally. Wouldn't be much fun if ...

Well I used the "support" email as it wasn't indicated which to use and I wasn't registering but a re-registration. And yes, I copied everything on the stickers included name address and the rest asked for. Almost a week now.

I don't really think I'll upgrade as I don't need much functionality, I ...

Well, if the people at SonicCore ever return my request to register the card I can use it. So far no reply. The service hasn't much changed all those years. I browesed through the docs of the soft and it looks as if the early reflector is all I'll require.

Okay, so I can give it a new life. Good to know. I'm not needing that much, just a bit of reverb, some routing/mixing and delay. Should be an easy job for it.

I did find a few backup cd's. One has Pulsar 2.04a on it, the other Pulsar V3.0 8) . Dated 2001 and still readable (I'm getting old :cry ...

Wanting to make a stand-alone effect box I was looking through my boxes for a soundcard and found back my old Pulsar. As It has all I need for the job, and more, it would be nice to use it again. But...it appears Creamware went away during the years I didn't use it. I cannot find any original cdrom ...

Thanks.

I'm going to sell my pulsar, but what do I (and the buyer) have to do to make this as painless as possible? I guess the registration will have to be changed and so on. Is there a way to "prepare" this? Like already dissolving my registration, so the new owner just has to register.

I have put my pulsar in a small pc to use it as a router. This pc has no keyb, mouse or screen and is controlled over the network. It loads the default routing at startup as intended. So far so good...

The problem comes at shutdown. I can tell the pc to shutdown, but it then hangs as sfp asks to ...

Since they don't give about customers, why should customers care about them? I'm still waiting for a reply to an email request, more than 1 year, still no answer.

Wondered what took them so long. Keeping ancient technology afloat takes more resources than going along.

Maniac: no, we use everything 32/33 can offer. 64/66 uses different connector but is backward compatible. 64/66 was known when pulsar arrived, but motherboards were sparse.

Petal: it will take more than a few months before pci-express arrives. Some boards have pci-x, but not mainstream, look for ...

If it ever comes. PCI-Express is already on the horizon and as pci-x is not yet taking of, it may never happen and be directly overtaken by pci-express.

Anyway, do you expect creamware to use it when they could already have used 64/66 pci on the first pulsar? That said, there isn't a single sound ...

I was looking at those Shuttle systems. Looks nice for a transportable system. A bit expensive for what they offer.

Is there anyone out there running a pulsar on one of those Shuttle Small Form Factor barebone systems? Thinking about getting one of those as they take up so little space and are transportable.

If so, which one?

Thanks Kimgr, looks a very good tip.

You want a bit too much. First all references are to a different drive letter, so you would have to change every entry in the registry adnd in each .ini, .cfg, whatever! Then you would need to edit the master boot record.

Probably take you more time than a full install.

It just shows that they do not test their stuff as it should be! They do not know the problems, they do not test, they do not read user feedback.

Sorry for them, but they asked for it.

Okay here it is, make sure you sit well so you don't slide to the floor under the table:

Via Epia C3 800MHz
Pulsar 1+
256MB
60GB IBM disk

Thats it. The pulsar costs about 3x the rest of the pc. But it works, it is the first pc I could get the pulsar working in without the usual messages, so there ...
