hi community,
i had pulsar1 and i wired with adat to yamaha 01v and worked just fine
now i aded pulsar2 card to my system and wired with stdm cable.
Now i have problem when i want to record mix i have noise pops in sound.i think is somthing with asio scope driver or pci slots ,if anyone have ide what shoud i change please help.
i try to make more latency , but not efect........................
HELP

well, start at the beginning....

the driver won't be affected by adding a card.

go to start\programs\accessories\system tools\system information\hardware resources\conflicts/sharing and tell me what, if anything is sharing an irq with a Scope card.

what os are you using?

windows xp profesional service pack 2

no match found in conflict/sharing and irq

really? none?

ok.

which is master and which is slave between O1V and Scope?

Master is pulsar , a16 is set on optical, and yamaha slave, and everything was same when i had just pulsar 1 and i didn't have cracks or pops.maybe i should rotate adat inputs-outputs on pulsar 1 or 2?

yeah, first clean the ADAT ports with compressed air.

then try swapping cables and ports. start with just one device, simplify the setup so that you can track down the source of the clicks.

Your creamware card should be on it's own IRQ, not sharing it with anything else.

You could try to move it/them to a different PCI slot or if I remember correctly, in Windows XP you can assign IRQ's and possibly solve the problem that way, but I don't recall how.

you can move the Scope card, or move or remove the add-on ethernet card.

i unable everithing and now irq 16 is sharing between creamware pulsar 2 and intel g 41 graphic card.does somebody know how to change irq on graphic card, if it is posible?

there's no way to change this other than changing the slot the Scope card is in. that stuff is hardwired in the motherboard.

Afaik, some motherboard bios software does allow you to reassign irq numbers.. Check your bios manufacturer manual.

windows acpi does not allow it even it the motherboard's bios does, afaik....

Correct !

Any IRQ higher than 15 is a virtual IRQ anyway.
Sometimes it´s best to start from very beginning.
Have computer w/ graphics card, driver and OS incl. chipset drivers installed ,- than insert SCOPE PCI card, install SCOPE and see if it has an exclusive IRQ,- if not, disable USB controllers,- if not, swap the card until it works.
Don´t add any other card before.

I have the same problem w/ a old machine and SCOPE 4.5 and PCI card,- just only because I want to have a Adaptec SCSI PCI card, USB/Firewire combo card (TI chipset) and Realtek network card in addition.
Regardless what I do,- DPC latency checker reports the yellow and red spikes.

Seems it´s not possible to use all the slots on a mobo, depending on brand/model,- so be happy it works w/ SCOPE PCI alone.
