For Thomas Regin:
Did you find the right drivers for your Radeon?

Yes I did!

I downloaded the newest ones from ATI's site, and so far they've been working flawlessly!

Yes, Amits; Scope Fusion Platform includes drivers and software for CW boards.
I did'nt have this problem using driver and software from Luna CD (version 3.1c); I got NOT LESS OR EQUAL after the upgrade to the 4.0 version of driver and software. I downloaded it from Creamware web site.

Without being certain of anything related to this frustrating problem, I do have a vague theory:

I think that this problem may occur if SFP is installed AFTER installing the graphics card driver. From what I have seen on the forum, it seems as people are experiencing this problem after upgrading to SFP4.0 or after a clean install.

Try deleting any traces of the graphics driver, and reinstall it!

Just my $0.02

Thank you, Thomas.
I'm going to download the driver for my Radeon; though the same problem seems to have so few common points... and so much facets...

I've found this surfing the web just now
http://www.microsoft.com/resources/docu ... p_ottj.asp

It so strange. A week ago, when I searched the web for related info, it looked like very few pages found; and I did'nt see this.
Now google is full of NOT LESS OR EQUAL!?

Cochise- I'm not sure what is SFP 3.1v.. if you mean the Luna software, then yea.. this is what i work with. and the bug appears.

music maniac- you mean disaling in the bios or in the device manager?

BIOS 1st.Get minimum and build from up.Even from installing windows and programs.

Amitos · Post by **Amitos** » Mon Nov 15, 2004 4:05 am

I have disabled all the features in the bios and still the blue screen appeared. next step is to try reinstalling windows.... and installing luna before anything else..
what else can I try?

Did you try to remove both driver and phisically agp card, and put it back again? A less than perfect contact, some dirt, or a not perfectly aligned mobo can bring this error. It happened to me. Incorrect operation of agp card affects all the system badly.

Amitos · Post by **Amitos** » Mon Nov 15, 2004 9:31 am

Hmmm..... It's an onboard card... and it's a new motherboard so I assume it's not that..

Cochise · Post by **Cochise** » Mon Nov 15, 2004 11:01 am

I've installed SFP 3.1 and related driver yesterday. No blue screen yet (on my PC the problem come out occasionally).
Try the paradox: download and install Scope 4.0.

Post by **garyb** » Mon Nov 15, 2004 12:39 pm

4.0 is stable here on more than one machine.

valis · Post by **valis** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 4:06 am

No problems here with 4.0...2 diff pc's and 3 installs...

Amitos · Post by **Amitos** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 8:38 am

Oh my god..... I think this is it!!!

I have installed windows over again, and installed The drivers for DSP before the ATI. and as for now it is working!!! just that for some reason my computer acts odd..... I hope everything is ok....

thank you pepole, I think I rest my case

Cochise · Post by **Cochise** » Tue Nov 16, 2004 9:57 am

Thanks.
I'm gonna try.
Does anyone is of the opinion that RAM 1GB could be also usefull for this?

I realize that can replicate this error message on my system if I set Sonar to MME 32bit and hit record. System crash with the same error .If I go back ASIO all works fine.

I had this problem on my laptop.. I eventually reinstalled windows, which has stopped it happening so often , but not completely. Used to happen all the time, in whatever program i was running, now just happens some times if i try to do something on the network while the laptop is running a lot of tracks in logic.. but i know that running a background process is dangerous when you're doing music apps, so I'm always wary when doing this....

All i can say is good luck.. one thing for sure is that I learnt a lot more about windows and irqs while trying to solve this problem

@mrbiscuit: sounds like an irq sharing problem. your cwa card probably shares an irq with your network card.

@cochise: more ram is not changing the problem i guess, but it's useful anyway

Cochise · Post by **Cochise** » Wed Nov 24, 2004 9:58 am

I've uninstalled graphic card and CW drivers and then reinstalled Scope 4.0 and ATI driver(lastly).
Since a week I've no more blue screens!
Thank you all very much.

Cochise · Post by **Cochise** » Thu Nov 25, 2004 12:21 pm

Not less or equal is still here.
Taday the blue screen has broken the windows 2000 boot up sequence once again in my machine.
It's a strange thing that when I install 3.1 Scope version all seems to be OK, cause the drivers file are the same in the two versions; at least the files have same dimension and date...

Does trying to run CW software in Windows XP could be a good idea?
