My Emu 1212 was working this morning on my PC, since then i've moved offices, and i'm using a different user logon in windows. Now Windows doesn't even seem to detect the Emu in the machine. When I run PatchMix DSP I get the following error message.

Any ideas how to get it working again? I want my music back!

Incidentally, my other sound card has dissappeared as well - AV710. Onboard sound's working, well, as well as can be expected

Seems like you're lacking some permissions required. Didn't the latest 1212m drivers fix non-admin operation?

I've had my EM-U stop working after moving it before... I had to remove patchmix and the driver and switch the slot the card was seated in, then reinstall the drivers and patchmix before things came back up. If nothing else seems to work, you might try this. I think in my case it has something to do with fighting for resources. I had taken the computer to a meet where it wasn't hooked up to my UPS. When I hooked it back up at home with the UPS (which uses a serial connection to connect with the monitoring software) the problem came up.

Thanks guys. I'm an admin on the box, the just doesn't seem to be detecting the card. I'll try uninstall then reinstall, and finally i'll try reseating the card.

if the card is on the same comp im assuming

the drivers might have only been installed for that old user acct., windows can be crazy...

id uninstall and reinstall drivers + all sound card software and reinstall from the new acct.

An uninstall/reinstall of the drivers as admin didn't help. I've emailed Emu, and when I get a chance i'll try moving the PCI card out and around. Other suggestions are welcome, if anyone has any.

This worked perfectly, all sound cards are working fine now, thanks Jasper!
