Good Morning. Maybe this is the best forum ever and so I try to ask you something not related to our beloved sonar.
yesterday I received my brand new MOTU 8M. I can't use it because of continuos blue screen reboots. The USB driver seems to be properly installed and in the audio drivers list I can see the motu in&out drivers.
Happens that as soon as any sound has to be played, the blue screen appears notifying that it was caused by MotuProaudio.sys.
I tried to install without firewall and antivirus and with no other USB periferals connected.
I think this could be related to driver. My PC is AMD Phenom on M4N98td evo and I know that the driver test are often performed on Intel chipsets, that are more used by pros.
I made the reset Operation on 8m and The firmware was already up to date.
I don't think it's an hardware related issue. 8M plays sounds very well and the control software works flawlessly.
I rather think it's a driver weakness. I tried to load two older release and I had different behaviours but anyway no stream from computer. This time no blue screen but windows freeze.
Using a laptop with win10 I get sound, even if with pop and crakles.
What do you think about?
Any workaround? I really like how this interface sounds, never heard this dynamic response on other gears.
Thanks
