Re: Does this look like a cracked solder joint to you?

O.M.G. How did I not spot that - thank you for pointing it out! I couldn't find the cap anywhere, so I'll need to buy a spare. Is anyone able to confirm if these would be a good replacement?

Does this look like a cracked solder joint to you?

I've been having bad stability issues with my card, no audio, loud crackles, etc. I took a look at all the capacitors under a microscope to look for any damage and it all looked fine apart from this one hair-line shown here. https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/17WOqBZr1I5CMNnFLgXwaMrL850GPau-vFlq...

Re: A16 Ultra doesn't always get connection to XITE over Z-Link?

Just chiming in here to say I also have an A16U and also need to warm it up before I can use it, 5-15 minutes.
If I launch Scope too soon after cold I either get loud digital noise from the A16U, or lots of rapid crackles. If I let it warm up it works fine all day.

Re: Giada causes BSOD in Scope.sys

Interesting development:

Newly built PC and installed a different application, "Ricoh Theta", https://support.theta360.com/en/download/pcmac/, which causes the same ScopePci.sys BSOD when it tries to set up a connection to ASIO.

Love reading this, thanks.
I've just this afternoon built my Asus Prime B460 plus Win10 system and am typing from it now.
Next I'm now going to physically install my Scope cards so watch this space.

Thanks, I've just this weekend ordered a new system based on the ASUS Prime B460 PLUS.
We reached the same conclusion in this thread as you did:

It's nice to have it confirmed from two sources though!

Re: PCI Express x1 to PCI/PCI-X Adapter Card

The main chip on the PCIe Riser I bought is marked P17C9X 111SLBFDE 2015GT. There are a few other types on the market with different chips, for example: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/4000384523691.html I wonder if it might be worth gambling again on a different riser. Maybe a different implementat...

Re: PCI Express x1 to PCI/PCI-X Adapter Card

I'm not sure I understand your instructions but, anyway, the case in the middle was also complaining about "Timeout waiting for acknowledge from DSP 0" (highlighted in green) so no amount of valid keys would solve that

Re: PCI Express x1 to PCI/PCI-X Adapter Card

With the Windows 11 announcement saying we'll need TPM modules, the Asus PRIME B460-PLUS motherboard I had found (modern but with legacy PCI) is out of the window for me. It doesn't have TPM as far as I can tell. Luckily I hadn't made the purchase yet! Looks like I'm back to the PCI Express x1 to PC...

Believe me, I'm grateful to be able to use my 20 year old soundcard!

There are plenty of modern motherboards with PCI slots(even though PCI is obsolete). I'm looking to buy a new motherboard now, the best I've found is the ASUS PRIME B460-PLUS (SOCKET LGA 1200) DDR4 ATX MOTHERBOARD. It's Chipset B460 and supports 10th Gen Intel, doesn't support Rocket Lake though. A...
