Changing 3 board setup

Post by Music Manic »

I have a 3 PCI board setup and would like to change a board for a different one. Will it be ok to just install it? The new board is 15DSP, so which slot is best or doesn't it matter. My other board are PulsarII.

Thanks

Hey,

I don't think it matters much. I have 3 Scope Pro and I have switched them around without any side effects.

as long as the card with the 5.1 license is still in the computer, you're fine.
i like to have the biggest card as the first card(closest to the video card), because then it will be filled first. there are advantages to device loading with the big card first, but it's really not an issue if the biggest card is in the middle or last. everything should work properly in any configuration.

You're right Gary. My top cards shows up as Scope[1]...

Yes, I choose for a position bringing the right (desired) listing in the Scope menu.
Biggest board first, but as Gary said all configurations work flawless, I tried recently :-)
