Re: PowerSDR 2.8.154 and 2.7.2 lockups with TI chipset Firewire

We are making some progress. Since I'm working from home I get to do a LOT of testing by watching / operating the radio all day long. Yesterday I changed to 96000 on the Primary sample rate, while running the Legacy Driver. That didn't make any difference. It still locked up, and when it did I had t...

Re: PowerSDR 2.8.154 and 2.7.2 lockups with TI chipset Firewire

I cleared the database and updated to 2.8.157 (I'm still running the Legacy firewire drivers.) After starting with a fresh database, it ran for a couple hours and then locked up flashing the Start / Stop because I had the "DttSP Auto Restart" selected. To bring it out of this condition I c...

Re: PowerSDR 2.8.154 and 2.7.2 lockups with TI chipset Firewire

I started running LatencyMon. I turned off the Intel Speed Stepping feature in the BIOS. I never had these type of issues exclusively running Unix/Linux operating systems the last 20 or so years. Windowz and their jargon is rather new to me, and frankly I loathe it. Here are the results of LatencyMo...

Re: PowerSDR 2.8.154 and 2.7.2 lockups with TI chipset Firewire

Thank you, Darrin. As it was affecting both 2.7.2 and 2.8.x of PowerSDR, I figured it was something else. I got a command line response after issuing the command. Info: Successfully rebuilt performance counter setting from system backup store The PC is a Dell Optiplex 990 with i5-5200 (4 cores) @ 3....

PowerSDR 2.8.154 and 2.7.2 lockups with TI chipset Firewire

I haven't had this Flex 5000A very long. I've recently put it in the forefront of my shack and been trying to depend on it. I was excited to go to PowerSDR 2.8.x with the new features, however it seems to want to lock up on me. To make sure it wasn't the PowerSDR version, I went back to the 2.7.2 ve...
