RE: Another PCI-822 question
Man, I forgot how much of a pain this card is. Maybe one of you can help me.
I had this card for years, and used it with my TMD 1000. I had 8 tracks running into my computer, and all sound from my computer was running back out the spdif into my board and out hte monitors. This was easy to use anc to control... until I had a power surge that fried my PC and all components.
I remember whne Tascam first released the beta drivers so that the card would work with XP and Win2k, and I got heklp from memebrs on the forum on how to install it and set it up. I figured I would just remember how to do it.... So I bought a new PCI 822 of of E-Bay to work with my new PC and my TMD 1000.
I got the new drivers, installed the card, installed the new drivers, and viola! Nothing. I tired messing with my settings on the 822, and occasionally got some green lights on the panel, but usually my system would completely lock up and I would have to reboot and change the setting back. When I go into the control panel for windows, I can't find the card to choose the system's default audio devices. it shows the card as installed, but drop fdown box is grayed out.
I remember there was a specific sequence of things I had to do to install the card last time, and if I went through that sequence, the card would work. If I didn't, the card would not. Anybody have any idea how to get this thing installed?
TIA for any help.
