LynxTWO- Nuendo- please Help!!

50kent,

Could you open the Lynx Mixer and Click: Mixer > About Lynx Mixer. What is the Mixer Version, DLL and SYS versions, and firmware rev?

Do you have any other PCI devices in the system?

Have you tried a different PCI slot?

Standing by...

In the Lynx Mixer, try clicking Settings > Advanced > Memory Read Multiple = OFF. 

If that doesn't help, let's see if things change after you flash this firmware rev. Some users with a lot of PCI traffic have reported trouble with the PCI instructions in the newest firmware revs. Let me know how it goes.

Regards,

In my experience; for whatever reason; on all 3 systems with P965

chipsets anyway; that I tried;  The UAD's and Lynx's were very picky about slot combinations;  on more than one machine I've had you could install the two, but they "stepped" on each other; and things like the driver not seeing the lynx card or vice versa happened alot.

Once I found the few magic combinations; everything behaved properly.  But when they are "stepping" on each other, the card won't appear; it will have huge performance problems; or will BSOD.

I'm pretty sure early on a year or two ago I logged a bunch of calls with paul regarding "dma" type conflicts with the uad.  He might be

able to help.  Now, I thought I had the same problem with the powercore; as it wouldn't see it's driver; but this was something discovered about a year ago; on the pc forum; with cards like the element; many powercore's won't take their settings/see the driver until you do a warm hw reset.  for whatever reason; they don't power up all the way; and tend also to hang other cards because of it. But after that warm hw reset; all the cards re-order; and things will work.

But; it behaved the same way prior to warm hw reset.

Making them all work together... priceless.

hi!

I have now set the Memory Read Multiple to off. Im still having problems. Well it seems like the card doesnt get lost anymore?

Everything still freezes, and when i try to reboot cubase, cubase tells me audiorecording is not possible, cause the lynxcard isnt there or something.. i try to manually set cubase to work with lynx but it still says no recording possible and switches back to full duplex driver on my sb audigy. When i reboot windows everything works fine again for another 15min or so.. so at least i dont need to reboot hundred times for the lynx to appear. I will try to flash the firmware tomorrow. 

Oh, while I'm thinking about it, I did alot of testing with the V1 driver

in this situation, because it behaves quite differently.  There is alot a use dma option in v1 that can make or break stability.  But with it off, there is performance issues.

I mean, my situation was real similar, the objective was

2 aes16

2 uad

1 powercore.

For the longest time I just took the powercore out, but that was a preferance thing;  I wanted more uad cpu, I could take either 1 uad out or the powercore and I could change slots to get it stable.

This was all before MRM and such;  UAD also made significant changes in the 4.x driver for dmaturboboost or something like that.

I am not sure if that option is settable anymore though.

And, I'd think that's just a performance thing, not a BSOD, no driver show up thing.

Again, I just fussed and fussed with card positioning until things worked at a real basic consistant level. 

install cards.

(reboot so they hop around.)  p.s. david also has a delete card entry

program posted here that makes it *way* easier to troubleshoot what's going where.

then complete that cycle, make sure you reboot twice!
