Storm 2Pro trouble

[schimmel]

At the moment the Storm card does not switch anything to the output terminals from the timeline. It does give me an output from DV or S in.
This goes for both vision and sound.
My computer decided today to change a few other settings on its own accord which I fixed but this one got me stumped. I use Edius 3Pro
Any ideas on what went wrong.

Hi Albert, not sure what went wrong, but last time my DVStorm stopped working properly something must have gone wrong with the drivers. I reinstalled them from the Edius installation disk and everything was back to normal. Have you tried this?

Hi Sascho
All I did was a repair install and this made no difference. The card just refuses to switch between record where it hangs, and play.

How long has the Storm been in the system? Can you remove the card, use a soft cloth (make sure it leaves no residue) and wipe the PCI pins, then take a dust blower and blow the PCI slot.

Also one more thing, try disconnecting all firewire ports from the Storm card, there might be a firewire port giving your Storm a freeze, this happened to me recently.

I had taken the card out disconnected everything, cleaned and reassembled. Made no difference.

Do you have a spare drive to install XP Pro (Fresh copy) again? I know you don't want to do it and it seems like a waste of time, but if you can, it's worth a try before coming to the conclusion that the Storm card is faulty.

Also can you try a different slot before you do the above?
