PLEASE!!! Help! I'm having strange problems installing Pulsa

Nestor · Post by **Nestor** » Wed Nov 02, 2005 1:24 pm

I have installed SFP many times, and I know almost all about it, so this is a disparate call, because I don’t know what else to do.

I’m having big problems to install Pulsar. I never had problems before. First was the dedicated ASIO driver not being recognize by SX.

When reinstalling everything, IRQ Nº 21 has disappeared and now I can’t install the Scope driver… The process goes on, but then it says “device installation error”, “no valid data”.

I went to device manager, and was surprised to see there is a yellow spot with the typical exclamation sign. What is going on here? I can’t find out

PLEASE, HELP ME with this!

Do you think I should reinstall everything again?

BTW: I have changed slot, just in case, but exactly the same...

Just in case you don’t remember, I use an Asus P4PE mobo
Latest BIOS 1007
Win XP Pro
1GB DDR
A stable Thermaltake power supply with 420watts.
Pulsar I Plus
Pentium IV 2.4

The system runs perfectly stable in all other areas, graphics, etc, and it runs fast.

All drivers ar fine.

But what do you mean exactly with it, and how would it be related to the problem?

sounds like the os has a problem(virus?). it might be best to backup important files and repartition(i think that's what the last post was about) and reformat and reinstall everything. you use a partition management program, right? maybe that's causing problems....

I have to say that, very unfortunately, I’ve got a bloody set of viruses without even being aware of then, I removed them but... I use firewall and antivirus too, but they smack me when doing some upgrades… We are in such a time that I recommend everybody to first, install a firewall and antivirus and THEN get online for windows update.

Garyb, when you say repartition the drive, are you saying to format just C or the entire HD and then install everything again, and partition again? It’s a matter of terms, please, tell me what you are suggesting exactly.

I need the system to get to work immediately.

Thank you guys for your answers…

then under all conditions - be relaxed and careful.
you do not get your work results any faster because of an ultrafast setup - the opposite will strike you - as sure as your disk will crash when you don't have a backup.

even more important: your mind will need a significant amount of time to settle if you drive an install session to the max, so YOU woukd be in working conditions even later...

sorry that I can't help you with the XP thing, but I'm passing some good vibes this way

best wishes, Tom
