Good day;
I was away for a few days, and turned my HP Pavilion (Windows XP SP-3)
OFF before I left. When I returned, I booted the computer, and started
the Flex-5000a radio, using PowerSDR 2.0.22 or 2.1 RC1. (The DC supply
was off, also...) -Nobody home, it seemed! I have tried the following:
- I did a complete shutdown of the computer
- I shut off the Flex-5000a
- I shut the DC power supply off
- Restarted the HP Pavilion (XP-SP3) , power supply, Flex-5000a
- Ran the FLEXRADIO application; "No devices found"
- Tried a second Firewire port on the radio; No help
- Tried a second Firewire cable to the radio; No help
- Using a Firewire 400->800 (low cost!) cable, I booted an
iMac in BOOT CAMP, running XP-SP3 and PowerSDR 2.0.22:
Flex-5000a runs OK!!!
(So, THE RADIO IS OK!)
- I hooked up an external firewire hard drive to the HP Pavilion: -Works
OK!!
(So, the Firewire ports are OK on the HP Pavilion computer)
(I have a bad (Flex-related) driver, all of a sudden!)
- Uninstalled PowerSDR 1.16, 2.1 RC1
- Restarted HP Pavilion
- Downloaded, installed PowerSDR 2.1 RC3
- Started PowerSDR 2.1 RC3
- FFT's up, down as usual; EPROM (something..!) loaded, saved...
- Ran FLEXRADIO; -Indicates "No devices found"
It seems that I have lost the driver for Firewire, but I do not know
which, or how...
I tried to "Update driver..." in DEVICE MANAGER for:
Flex Radio USB Driver (In FLEX RADIO)
1394 Net adapters (In NETWORK ADAPTERS)
Intel(R) Pro/100 VE Network Connection (In NETWORK ADAPTERS)
(All attempts to automatically locate/update FAILED)
What have I failed to do? (How do I fix this??)
Do I need a better Firewire card?
(I am using the motherboard's on-board ports; -Worked OK for YEARS!)
