Old 1224 install : guess what, not working !
Posted: Tue Jul 15, 2008 3:08 am
Ok so here's the story. I have a beautiful computer that's 6 month old, in it I installed a pci424 and plugged a 1224. All was working fine since january until yesterday. I just decided to move my computer from one place in my room to another place in my room. Got everything disconnected and reconnected again, but I forgot to plug the AC cord for the 1224. When I realise my mistake, I rebooted with the 1224 up & running, but the 44.1 LED never stop flashing. I thought "nevermind, I have to make a fresh install of windows xp".
So here I am, a fresh install of windows xp later, I install the driver for the pci424, I plug in the 424 card (in the same slot as before), I reboot, the card is working fine. Then I stop the computer, plug the 1224, boot the computer, and the 1224 is not recognized. I tried different audiowire slot, different pci slot, I tried different driver version, nothing worked. And NOTHING changed in my computer : same chipset, same motherboard, I didn't change any option at all. Still it's not working. I remembered having a hard time the few times I installed the motu (on other computers) but eventually I always figured out how to make it work. But not today.
So please help me, cause I'm in a need for this unit, and I'm beginning to think motu drivers REALLY suck. Even thinking about selling all this stuff and buy from another brand...
