RE: [gina-users] Drivers 3.0.5
I don't know that the change for the Layla driver is that significant, as the console comes with the 3.00 driver that was the first installed. I'm quite pleased with the quality of the sound. Fred

In C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\ Delete echo*.* and vechogal.vxd Just to be sure in C:\WINDOWS\INF\OTHER\ Delete Echo CorporationECHOGALS.INF Also in Control Panel/System/Devices select Gina by Echo under Audio, reboot and now you will have a fresh install like the first time (remove the original CD with 2.0.5 and if you want place the 3.0.5 drivers on a floppy disk because is the first place windows search for a new driver :) Now my GINA is working PERFECTLY!!! (the 3 seconds playback was in fact an IRQ issue :) I've tried to swith IRQs from withing windows with no success, for some reason GINA was trying to get into IRQ 11, I have an AWE32 so the best solution I've found is get both cards off the case just like if I had bought the PC today, then reboot, put the AWE and let '95 find it, the drivers get installed automatically since you doesnt deleted anything, turn off the machine, put the GINA, reboot again,and voila! win95 finds the audio device and asks for drivers :) It tooks IRQ 9 with absolutely no problem :) Seems like my motherboard likes to reserve IRQ11 for USB even if is disabled from BIOS :) Anyway I just want to say that I'M HAPPY with my GINA! I can hear/record my AWE32 MIDI instruments MUCH clear thru S/PDIF with a cable that I've home-made with the unused Turbo Switch cable that comes with my case :) The CONSOLE is a big improvement over the 2.05c drivers, the TRIM feature its just incredible, I let a friend of mine play like mad on the keyboard with the TRIM on, then turn off the TRIM and the volume is set to the max volumen on the keyboard without clipping :) I also recorded quiet sounds, like the ones produced by a 1 month old baby when is NOT crying :) and its PERFECT... no noise at all! :) Wavelab shows me a -90.3db, thats a really awesome noise floor compared with the -43db on my AWE argh! :) Now I have an almost perfect combo, the AWE acts as a 8Mb cheap sampler with clean audio thru S/PDIF and GINA records everything coming from the real world AND from S/PDIF at the same time if you want... thats GREAT! :) Only thing I really want to see now is native support for DSP/FX or DX drivers... or both! :))) -- SodA - Gustavo Ruiz [EMAIL PROTECTED]

GINA is working fine >now but I would like to have it 'fully' working with 3.0.5 :) I also have an AWE32 and found recently that I had an IRQ conflict I didn't even know about. The AWE32 has an IDE controller, and many times the IDE controller goes unused. I found that the IDE controller on the AWE32 was choosing IRQ11 (the same IRQ as GINA) so I wrote to Creative Labs to ask how to disable the IDE port. Since my AWE32 is actually a SB32 PnP, the answer was to make it conflict with the secondary IDE port then disable the driver. (Set it up to use IRQ 15). So now, I have all my IRQs back. GINA actually never stopped working with 3.05 drivers, I've never had a problem with them. Just thought it might help with your GINA problems. -Neal

Gustavio, Could you please re-post that trick? I must have missed it.

RE: [gina-users] Drivers 3.0.5
I had the same problem with 3.0.5 when tried to load it for my Layla. Echodel.exe would not completely deleat my 2.__ driver. The Layl has a 3.0.0 that has the console, and it works fine. Not only would the sound play for only a short time, but it would then lock up the console. I tried manuallu deleting, but still no luck, so I'm just running 3.0.0.
