Hi guys, a possible solution that I haven't seen mentioned...

When you run Gearbox , go to the options of the .exe file and select "run as administrator".

Do the same for your recording app.

That seemed to make my clicks completely dissappear....

Could work for you...

I noticed this when running Line 6 Monkey and found that it couldn't report on the status of the processor, but after selecting the "run as administrator" it showed the processor as "OK"...

Try it might work!

I hope they do soon. I don't think its just affecting laptop users mind from what I've read. I've got constant distorted sound from windows sounds...media player...pod farm..it just crackles away...I've tried older drivers..nothin works...

I've got an AMD Athlon 64 6000 X2 and an nForce 7 chipset..XFX 8200 Motherboard to be precise. I hope they get a fix for it soon..or my UX2 will be heading back to the shop..........

Does the expresscard adapter help or not? I'm sure someone has tried it? Waiting for an answer...

Hi.

After trying absolutely everything:

1. Powered USB hub

2. ExpressCard

3. Run as Admin

4. Reinstall, etc

There's still ocassional noise and in general terms, the Line6 device is not properly working.

Question is: Has anyone tried Windows 7?

Hi,

i have the same problem with a brandnew  HP Pavilion dv5-1112ea Notebook: 4 GB - RAM, 320 GB Harddisk,

Processor:      AMD Turion X2 Ultra Dual-Core Mobile, 2.2 Ghz – ZM82 with 2MB L2 Cache,  and  WINDOWS Vista (SP1) 32 bit

see:

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01561632&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=de&cc=ch&tool=&product=3816552&query=dv5%201112ea&os=2093

(On my Old  HP-Omnibook XT 1000; 1,2 Ghz, 256 MB Ram, 20 GB HD and USB 1.1, + WinXP  i never had this glitches. Only one short every 10 minutes or so..)

When i start Riffworks Line6 Edition, the PODXT shows a clip (althought output + volumne are set to zero..)

If i press the PLAY button (Instant drummer comes...) i have terrible glitches. Theese are so laud, that the instant drummer or the Riffworks metronome (cow-bell) could'nt be heared. The clip is also visible at the ASIO CONTROL PANEL/Inputs & Recording - Tab. even without i press play or record.

And there are  many  small more silent glitches, to the Speaker of my guitar Amp, even if nothing is activated but Riffwork was started?

I've already found this:

http://line6.com/community/docs/DOC-4282

I have disabled Wireless Lan, set Accu power status to highest Level, set Audio Setup / ASIO control Panel in Riffworks to Extra Lagre -  Buffer Size (USB Audio streaming), disabled HDMI Sound..

variing PODxt Monitor Level, ASIO Settings: default buffer size or bit depth,  does not change anything..

The mentoined solution with an old printer cable from one user suggested didn't work with my podxt.

If i use an usb-hub, the pops are gone, but Riffworks hangs up while "loading high cowbells", and crashes. without the hub, RW is powering up fine, but the clicks and pops are there.

I have 3 USB Ports on my Laptop. 2 on the right (these are very noisy).  The Power Cable on the right is ca. 3cm away from the 2 USB Ports..  And i have 1 usb port on the left side. This has less noise but it's still too much for any recording.

CONCLUSIO:

Normally i'm running with ubuntu Linux 9.04 AMD 64 Bit and only!! for Line6 i've bought  & installed a dual boot Vista (SP1) 32 bit to avoid driver problems etc..

*LOL*

I found out that HP Laptops have a

Sigmatel C-Major Audio Driver Error

This document applies to HP Pavilion dv4/dv5/dv6/dv7/HDX16/HDX18 series notebook PCs with Windows Vista.

http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01860380&cc=de&lc=en&dlc=de&product=3816552

I do not have this problem described in there but maybe it has something to do with the genereal white noise problem.

Here's another interesting one, i'm gonna check this out

I think the real problem may just be the ati radeon graphics card drivers conflicting with the line 6 drivers in vista. I have the same problem running a intel core i7 with an ati 4850. Everyone who has posted there system specs here is also running ati graphics cards. I may just go and buy an n vidia card and see if it changes anything for me.

Ok so aftrer forever fighting with white noise burst with my tone port I did go out and buy a pod x3 and it streams audio and records using asio with no drop outs at all. No heart stoping noise burst anymore  Now what I really like to know is what is different and what exatly fixed my noise?  Is it the driver? or the usb 2.0, Or just the hardwre itself?

salve ragazzi sono italiano scusate se vi parlo nella mia lingua

ho un hp dv7 cpu turion 2 core

ho installato la ux2 su windows 7 e vista

windows 7 10 minuti di prove con pod far tutto bene poi metto un preset del quale non ricordo il nome ed iniziano i pop e rumori vari

con esattezza pare vadano in loop tutti pezzettini di musica che passano all'ascolto in modo velocissimo

sia vista che windows 7 sono a 32 bit

di fatto la scheda per ora risulta inutilizzabile

Yeah! Finally I got my asus work with my effect. South bridge drivers helped. Too shame I sold pod and now use korg pandora px5d (had the same problem with pandora).

I have a HP dv7 3057nr with this same processor, Radeon 4200,  IDT HD Audio Codec.

OS: Win7 64 Home Premium (preinstalled)

I made a thread way back in October last year. And the last reply I left was in February. Line6David and Line6Hugo tried helping me out.  Anyone else have this same comp as me and experienced pretty much constant shell errors after installing a TonePort UX2?

The last time I installed was in December. After giving up  I ran the installer but it uninstalled hardly anything. It left all kinds of crap in the registry, folders still full of obviusly worthlessness (Program Files x86, Program Data, and even though I'm the administrator and only user, there were still user created tone files in my own Documents and AppData folders, as well as junk in the Public folders, and the other generic Admin folder (that's not the Admin Folder that you can't access.)). I managed to delete all of those manually.

The real trouble I got into was having to manually delete the Line6 control panel icon. which wasn't that easy. With the thanks to UAC and Access Control Lists, I had to give myself access to a System folder to delete it. How do I explain this.... I first made sure to write down what users had what existing priveleges (which the SYSTEM already did, which makes sense), after I was done, I restored the permissions and ownership as they were before. But heres the other odd thing. I seemingly still have access to every single folder and file in the entire Windows directory (not that I'm bragging about it and managed to put Win7 into God Mode, but this is a big severe security risk, its still why Windows is still such an easy target for malware and rootkits). I'm not sure if it was my doing or the shell32 crashes going on, but I noticed that some of the protected folders no longer have padlock icons next to them. But I checked the list of users that also have  allowances to the Windows directory, and seen that the TrustedInstaller has more permissions than the SYSTEM. I have constantly been hunting allover Microsoft's website and elsewhere to find a solution to change all of the permissions back to the way they were before. Installing SP1 didn't fix anything.

I definitly want to fix the Windows directory ownership garbage, if it's even possible, but I don't really want to do a bunch of complicating manual registry repairs or manually recreate system files. A reinstall is always a solution, but I don't want to have to uninstall all of the bloatware. Actually I have had to do reinstalls with the other four  drivers crashing my machine. Reinstalling nearly failed.

I can honestly say that while the shell32 errors are no more...(or are they), subtle after effects remain (too difficult to describe).

What's the problem with the AMD USB Filter? This was preinstalled on my machine.

It just isn't about Line6 and AMD here. It's also about getting any new drivers for other things. I gave up on HP Advisor, Support Assistant, and HP Update (which all three were not very reliable, and completely useless since the factory warranty expired exactly a month ago). The specific page for my particualar model never has anything newer beyond or even that model is even sold or supported at all. I would like to know of what company manfuctured the BIOS for HP (Phoenix, American Megatrends..? Like HP really manufactures their own BIOS) . I thought about doing a BIOS upgrade.

After uninstalling the TonePort. I would experience overheating (204 degrees F on both cores and 130 degrees and upwards on fan temperatures) And yes I keep the vents and fans cleaned. The overheating got resolved by being stuck with having to use the Power Saver power setting (can't complain too much, at least everything is cooler and the fans don't run non-stop.)

Here's some more abuse I put myself through. Here's where I'll exapand on the shell32...or are they? Thinking surely there had to be one released I decided to upgrade the graphics driver, I thought I would see a somewhat different change, since Firefox 4 and IE9 can use GPU acceleration, and some support for HTML5 and the fact the you can view svg files with IE. I saw TOO many changes. All through last week everytime I went view my personal tracking protection filters, my system would freeze up. It's what I expected,  a newer graphics (which I uninstalled) driver was causing some error or memory leak involving a msvcrt.dll. I don't know whether to blame the graphics driver, the TonePort driver (there's still leftover inf and ini files in the DriverStore. Some of those have UX1 in the name.), some weirdness with IE9, installing SP1, me having to delete the control panel icon (why would anybody want to have an icon that serves no use at all), either one or a combination of any.  Rolling back to the original preinstalled graphics driver helped.

I'll never install a newer graphics driver unless I have real reason to.

The most bewildering thing is, that through all of this driver nonsense no BSOD.

I never went through this bull with XP Pro (but it doesn't count). It was a custom built machine free of bloatware, except for Windows is itself.

I'm about to put together a Win7 Pro 32 barebone. And possibly see if XP Mode would give me less trouble. I just want to be able to get more use out of my TonePort.
