Help MY new AIW is not recording right? Very odd.

Post by anna »

Hi
Can any one help I have a new AIW 9200 128
with a new install of win xp sp2 Dx 9c
MMC 9.08, Cat 5.08 on an AIW
all the new ati drivers.
When I try to record to my hard drive it starts off like it should you see
the
in mmc. You see record time but it is like locked at 0000 and does not count
up or down.
The time remaining on drive c: stays at 3 days 20:49:11 and does not
move.
Has any one ever heard of this before?
It saves the file to the hard drive it will not play and the file size is
very small its 45 kb
114 kb and does not play.
If so how can I fix it? What could be wrong?
I have called ATI and they were no help at all.
I have reinstall and installed the ati drivers as to how ati says how to at
http://WWW.ATI.COM/INSTALL
So can any body help?

jeeze thast weird, have you checked to see if DMA is enabled for your HD. I know that ATI does not like running on a non DMA dive.

Right Click on My Computer, select manage, click on Device Manager, under IDE ATA right click on the channal the HD is on and click properties. Set it to DMA if avalible and reboot windows.

I dont know that this will help but its the best i got right now.

Hi
I looked and its on DMA if avalible.
So thanks I dont know why I cant get this to go right.
I know its not the motherboard as I had the same setup with all the same cards in it. In the same slots so its not a irq thing.
See before I used to have a AIW 7500 64meg with wix xp sp1 It all worked fine for years.
When I got my new AIW 128meg I bought A new hard drive a new win xp sp2 All other hardwere is the same.
I dont know what else to try.
Thank you so much so far for your help.

Have you tried uninstalling the drivers and then using a cleaning program to remove everything.

http://www.drivercleaner.net/

then reinstall the drivers and see if that helps. I know it sucks but this is what i do for a living is uninstall drivers and reinstall untill i get stuff to work :(

Since you are using MMC 9.08, did you make sure to install the Remote Wonder software?
