2 weeks ago i start to work with new hardware: p4t-e, p4/2.2 and 1giga rambus (win98se). in the begining i was thinking that everyrthing will work good but with time i notifice 2 problems:
1. while i work in cubase i have some little jumpings (about 1 time in hour). sorry, i don't know english word for this sound - this is not click - this is very-very little hole in sound (few miliseconds)?!
2. in cubase (in some songs) my cpu meter for no reason goes (song not playing) 20-30% (depending of cpu usage) up, stay 4-5 seconds and than goes down to normal?!

I don't know, if it is related to this -> http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb ... SD=SO&FR=0 , but you might want to take a look at it anyway.

thanks, immanuel, but i can't find solution.
for second time i trying to substitute cusl2/p3-933 with power hardware but again i found that cusl2 works better. i didn't change software - just hardware
i want to try xp but i can't be able to use gsif.... ?
what to do?
anybody with p4t-e and win98se?!?!

Did you try setting VCACHE to 524288 both max and minimum?
What is gsif?

Immauel

Why would you try setting vcache so high!?

http://www.bluelifeaudio.com/~pcconfig
->optimisations
->windowsxp

read about 2/3 of the page about vcache.

Or what troubleshooting are you trying to do?

yes, i try... now i set this value again and i will see.
do you know do i must set chunksize in system.ini and what to do with virtual memory size?

gsif is driver for gigastudio.

thanks, atomic!
i follow instructions on this page and now i can work with 4ms latency for the first time in my life
cpu is stabile now
i need time to see am i solve this strange "drop in sound problem" .... i hope - yes!

Atomic

Because, as you can see in my first link, Microsoft themselves have stated, that WIN98se (among others) can not handle more than 512MB of RAM, BUT if you assign the extra RAM you have for VCACHE, it should be no problem.

Immanuel

Have any of you managed to get the c/p registry extension to work? I get the message, that the file is nt a registry script. (I have no double extension).

Immanuel

yes, i solve this! but i think that wasn't vcache problem here. i try set to 16384 and 524288 and about 2 hours of working i can see (hear) diference.
my computer's knowledge is realy little to say what's problem, but i set some other things in system.ini and in windows system (virtual memory, file system....) and for now everything works good

btw: immanuel, have right (i try it) if you don't set vcache win98 can't work with more than 512mb of ram! now is the question what's formula to set value?!
