Topic: Fireface 400 with legacy drivers sluggish and slow
Hi!
I am using a PCI-E card (Sonnet Allegro Express FW400) to connect my Fireface to my system. I always had to use the legacy drivers (1394 OHCI Compilant Host Controller) for my card, or otherwise I would get the BSOD.
Now I have updated to WIN 1903 and since then, the FF settings and Cubase altogether are totally slow. I literally takes 2 seconds to change tabs in the FF settings. I can't play any of my music without dropouts and stuttering.
So I tried the non-legacy driver: Everything worked fine again, until there was another BSOD and then another one....
What can I do? Get another FW PCI card? Sonnet is usually a very reliable company...
Here are my specs:
Win 1903
64GB Ram
Gigabyte Z370 HD3-CF (U3E1) Motherboard
Intel Core i7-8700K CPU @ 3.70GHz
Please help! I rely on my machine!
Thanks,
Matt
