In Reply to: RE: cMP - the open source high-end Memory Player posted by cics on December 30, 2007 at 05:42:01
Dear Forum,
I´ve run out of ideas to fix this.
I disk imaged my own (relative standard) cMP2 OS onto an identical friends computer.
now his system boots fine with this imaged copy, but we cannot get the system to recognize any hardware....his RME 9632 Hammerfall card.
nothing to be found.
we installed intel chipset drivers....nada.
we´ve searched the interrupt registry...nada
run the hardware install manager 25 times...nada
searched the device manager...nada
how come that an entire computer cannot recognize ANYTHING ?
what driver / module could be missing ?
the RME 9632 is brand new...the GA-H55M-UD2H and the i3-540 Core Intel also brand new.
any ideas are greatly appreciated
kind regards

Thanks for your replies guys.
....as so often, one just need to know or get a hint of what to turn back on :-)
flipped some of the suggested services on again, and the thing went through installation in a bliss.
kind regards

"Services needed for most other functions are the Event Log, WMI, COM+ Event System, COM+ System Application and DCOM Server Process Launcher. To update a sound card driver, set Event Log, Cryptographic Services, Windows Audio and WMI to Automatic and start them. Once the update is installed and stable, reset them to Manual."
"An issue with RME soundcards
A workround is needed when using the latest RME soundcards with cMP and there is no sound output even though setup seems correct. They require firmware initialisation which is done with configuration routines launched by Windows Explorer. cMP disables this.
Switch cMP to XP mode and restart the system to initialise the RME firmware;
Play a CD using Foobar2000 to check that the soundcard is working;
Start cMP, switch to cMP mode and restart – do not shut down as power to the soundcard will be lost and the firmware will need to be re-initialised;
The system can be re-started as often as necessary but this cycle must be repeated if it is powered down. "
Thanks a lot for your swift replies.
My dear new cMP friend (wonder if it may last...) is located 400 miles from here, so it´s a bit of a hazzle to direct him through the phone :-(
-bummer.
I´ve talked him into an easy "let me do a disk image for you" -affair.
Have a feeling that we can resolve at least the driver issue somehow, but that RME is depending so much on the windows thing worries me....
-how confirmed is this ?
Does it mean that the computer has to stay on at all times ?
If that´s true, we should issue a clear warning against RME on our forum here !
kind regards

I think that perhaps the original warning on RME cards issued by cics is not valid anymore.
This is a link from this forum:
Hi Playmate,
Just a wild guess and quick shot from the hip:
If it is a cMP setup according to Cic’s recipe: than you have most services disabled.
For recognizing new hardware and enabling that new hardware etc, some services are needed.
Once the hardware is properly installed and working, these services can be disabled.
I don’t know by heart exactly which services. From memory I think I can remember Cics wrote down which services are needed for this. But I’m not sure where I red it. If Cics wrote that down on his website or in his earlier documents ‘The art off building computer transports’.
Also: if you did apply the minlogon, I'm not sure it is possible too enable and disable these services.
Forinstance: autoruns only works before min-logon. After min-logon it will not startup.
So it even might be caused by multiple causes: min-logon + services.
Have a good scan in Cics older documents and/or website. It’s somewhere down there.

Yes, it is. All Services can be started and stopped no trouble under minlogon.
I'd start with the Windows Installer and Cryptographic services - note that, though cics wrote lots of things, what fixes the problem can be system specific. You might also need to re-enable some System Devices.
And who knows what else?
Also, you're right about Autoruns not running after the minlogon tweak.
Fun, fun, fun . . .
Dave
