music studio pc
I have a pc in the recording studio which freezes intermittently.
When it does there is a high pitched whistle and you have to turn it off at the power button.
The pc is linked via firewire to a Mackie firewire mixing desk and I suspect that is where the problem lies.
I took the pc out last week and ran memcheck dos for 7 passes and checkdisk which came back with no errors and no crashes.
I put it back in the studio and used it for about 30 mins when it again froze.
I can have the mixer looked at but the call out is VERY expensive and I just want to be certain that no pc stone is left unturned first. I have changed the pc firewire card and cables 3 times already.
Please have a look at the attached to see if anything looks out of place.
BTW, although the machine needs some windows updates this problem has gone on for several months when it WAS up to date.
Thanks,
Mike
