Phoenix card issue

[Mr_P]

See info:
http://chaldee1.gotadsl.co.uk/~richa...ead.php?t=1908

For catalyst use - Macs have to run in 32bit mode not 64bit

2010 MacPros 5,1 Boot in to 64Bit
New 2010 MacPros 5,1 boot in to 64bit mode.
3rd party drivers used with catalyst are not compatible with 64bit mode-
Active Silicon Drivers and other video digitisers are only 32bit.

SOLUTION:
MacPro need to boot in 32bit mode.
To select the 32-bit kernel for the current startup disk, use the following command in Terminal:

sudo systemsetup -setkernelbootarchitecture i386

This will sets the Mac to boot in to 32bit mode permanently
(an alternative command is available to boot in to 64bit mode)

hi FAXVAAG.

in order to have the best performance of phoenix working on
OS 10.6.x snow leopard mac pro's 5.1 insert Phoenix card
on SLOT 3 only.

Phoenix PE4 working fine on any slot of the mother board.
Phoenix PE1 working fine only slot 3 of the mother board.

Put your Phoenix on SLOT 3.

Check info mac/more information/PCIe/slot read if driver is installed,
you need reinstall driver if you move phoenix in different slot
(only one time).


if serial number your Phoenix starting by 5xxx please contact
Active Silicon Support,probably your phoenix need reflash at
last firmware version to working at the best.

for sure at moment you must work at 32 bit


Let we know.....
