Topic: UFX crashing windows 10 on firewire - interface startup sequence
Hello, I recently switched my UFX from USB to firewire and while I find it better on latency, I started getting the following two issues:
- every sometimes at startup my UFX has a weird lcd display behaviour, as the image appears distorted and flickering until the interface is turned off and on again. I had the habit when on USB to turn my interface on AFTER booting the pc and I noticed that the issue only happens if I do that. I also see that when turning on the interface after booting the PC, as the firewire connection is established the UFX reeboots itself. I've read on the forum that while on firewire it is better to turn on the interface BEFORE turning on the PC so by doing like that it seems I have solved my issue.
- The second issue which is still presenting is that my PC crashes with a blue screen showing an error message like "_IRQ_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL" referring to the driver which caused the crash as being "fireface64.sys". It mostly happens when i send a random midi input to the interface through one of the ports (mainly MIDI 1) but today it also happened by pressing twice on the taskbar icon "Fireface Settings"
I run my UFX connected to a Windows 10 PC with latest OS updates. I run fireface drivers 3.122 and firmware revision 344/27/7. My firewire interface is a Startech PCI card PCI1394MP
Any hint?
