Try a BIOS update. I know some mobos has bad DPC problems that were corrected by BIOS updates.
Are you using software/BIOS RAID? If could be that driver that is killing it. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: Brian Lloyd [mailto:brian-wb6...@lloyd.com] Sent: Friday, February 27, 2009 10:27 AM To: Tim Ellison Cc: k5...@sbcglobal.net; FlexRadio Subject: Re: [Flexradio] new version of net possible problem On Thu, Feb 26, 2009 at 1:19 PM, Tim Ellison <telli...@itsco.com> wrote: > Kind of like getting a whipping before doing anything wrong because > you will end up needing one eventually. Thank you sir, may I have > another :-) And I am trying to get a different machine to run powerSDR reliably. Every hour or so, out of the blue, I get a DPC latency spike of 43000us. Needless to say, PSDR stops working until I cycle it. FWIW, everything is turned off, even ethernet. If I turn off any more service tasks things stop working. But still I get that killer latency spike. The rest of the time it is 500us. Damn. There it goes again. Happened when I clicked on the Start button this time. Wow a new record! 44,045us! Look, I want so much for your products to work. No one else makes a transceiver even remotely like the F5K. I can put up with the inconsistent and wacky user-interface and not having a coherent baseband signal output architecture. I roll my eyes but I can work around them and use the radio. But the frustration of random failures due to flaky system software is maddening. I shouldn't have to become an OS tuning expert in order to use the radio. PLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASEPLEASE SUPPORT ANOTHER OS FOR THE FLEX PRODUCTS!!!! Gawd I *hate* Microsoft Windows. 73 de Brian, WB6RQN/J79BPL _______________________________________________ FlexRadio Systems Mailing List FlexRadio@flex-radio.biz http://mail.flex-radio.biz/mailman/listinfo/flexradio_flex-radio.biz Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/flexradio%40flex-radio.biz/ Knowledge Base: http://kc.flex-radio.com/ Homepage: http://www.flex-radio.com/
