We have bought Cubase 8.0 Pro and a new PC (core i7 - lga 2011, ddr4 ram, windows 8.1 64 bit) connected with Midas Venic F32 through Firewire cable.
When editing in Cubase there comes a Windows blue screen error: WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR, and we need to restart the machine.
We would be really gratefull if we find a solution, beacuse we need a stable PC for serious audio editing, because everything is running thoruh this PC.
Does anyone else have the same issues ?
We have installed Cubase 8, 32 bit and a Drumagog Platinum 32 bit.
No we dont have issues related with the CPU. We turned of “Speed-step” function in BIOS and now it’s working fine. We dont have crashes anymore in Cubase.
But now we have a blue screen when starting the Windows: WHEA UNCORRECTABLE ERROR.
in the past I had problems with an interface connected via Firewire, because of the chipset of the PCI-Firewire card. Possibly you just have to change the PCI - Express - Firewire card. Make sure to use one with Texas Instruments chipset.
By the way, that´s one of the reason, why I prefer USB interfaces.
I’m guessing this did not solve your problem. I have the same issue, and like you it’s only with C8P. WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR. Cubase 6/7.5 32 or 64 never crashes on me. I spent a lot of time changing BIOS settings and troubleshooting devices for bad drivers, but it’s only Cubase 8 Pro 8.0.20 that has this problem, and regardless of the project open, it tends to crash in about 10-20 minutes. I’m using JBridge 32-bit to 64-bit plugins which I have to use, so I don’t know if this might be the issue.
+1 here. I have since moved away from firewire devices… ever since I did, my system became FAR LESS volatile. You would do well to get rid of any Firefaces, Firebox’s, anything that connects via IEEE 1394 or firewire. It’s asking for problems. Not to mention it’s almost an antiquated technology now and alot of the new machines don’t even have a port for it. Surprised yours does.
