Hello there

I have made a computer from scratch with asus quad cpu, 8 gigs ram etc etc on gigabyte motherboard.

My fireface 800 was working fine with this setup but then it started to blue screen about a month after making it. I changed the firewire lead to a brand new one and this helped things for a while. Recently as soon as i turn on the fireface the blue screen of death comes up and stops things. I think it said item exception on the info screen on the BSOD.

Is this to do with conflicting IRQ's? I've heard that can happen. I try not to load anything onto this new machine that could bloat it. Although i have itunes and spotify, are there issues with those aps? I kinda use it for entertainment machine as well as demo recordings, is this wise?

Really bummed out as was looking forward to more productivity but has gone to zero now.

The fireface 800 works with my mates laptop in a mobile recording environment so i know it works without my new machine.

Any boffins on here willing to lend a hand?

Cheers
