G3.5 controller problems?

[TripHammer]

Hi,

I've got a problem with my PC and G3.5 every 5mins or so the PC looses its link with the controller! I've installed it on my laptop and it works fine, so I know its the PC end, I can re gain connection by selecting the controller in the menu.

Any thoughts? I'll go hunt the RF forum as well :(

Hmmm not sure on this one I have G3.5 and haven't had any problems like that, however if you see vapochilled and or phatchantz logged in they may have some answers for you :)

what OS you running? do you happen to know your motherboard make and firmware version?

[schwa]

i have not seen this either.

are you using the 3.5 update or beta?

I'm running Windows Vista x64 RTM (this is the full release version) on a Dual core AMD 64 with 2G ram (Ithis is probably the issue, and I guess I'll have to wait for a fix) the MB is an ASUS A8N-SLI with the lates bios I forget what version number

I have never had any problems with any other of my USB items, I've tried a number of ports but they all do the same,

Runing the full 3.5 from new (bought it Friday)

thanks

I think you already know the issue ;)
Any chance you can do a dual boot, just to prove it? it's clearly not a mobo/firmware issue

[TripHammer]

I guess I could do, I'll see if I can boot from a USB drive, I was hoping it was a common issue and that there was a known solution.

I'll also see if I can get a signed x64 version on the drivers... lol

thanks anyway

NP, you won't be the last person to have USB issues on Vista, I tried it for a customers media PC and almost all the USB devices, just disconected and then re-conected at random! pretty freaky given that USB is hardly new :mad:

Mine will occasionally not recognize the controller on the start, I'm running (an older board :o ) an ASUS P4B533-E with USB 2.0. Man, it's ancient! Like a year or so old!!! :p I just go to the controller menu and re-select the interlink and it then detects it and I have no more problems. My laptop also does NOT have this issue. It's so minor, I just haven't looked for a resolution.
