ILOK gone wild
HI
I'm running XP SP3 on a P5B-e/Intel E6600/4Gb RAM - 003. 7 days ago, I've formated my computer, installed latest drivers...older drivers..any driver I found but still can't make the ILOK work.. I get the same windows error over and over and I don't know what to do anymore to make it work. Windows says: "cannot start this device (code 10)" Than if I pull out the ILOK and back again..it works! But if I start PT, it goes off. Any Ideea PLEASE! Regards Oliver Last edited by oliver sterian; 02-11-2010 at 10:33 AM. Reason: forgot the 003. |

Verify the problem exists on another computer to determine if its the iLok or your computer. Try disconnecting any unneeded USB devices to attempt to determine if its a situation where some other device is using so much power that the iLok cant get enough to run properly.

My personal feeling is that its probably a driver issue. In rare circumstances the Windows Unistaller will miss files that were installed before a Service Pack update. Manually deleting and Pace and iLok folders after uninstalling the drivers may remove any strays and using the Windows Search function to find any orphan files and delete them. Running a registery cleaner like CCleaner from Piriform may help. Revo Uninstaller may help. Both are free downloads You reset or change any BIOS options lately? Suffer a power surge that would have reset some BIOS options? A Code 10 is pretty much a driver issue although I have seen it an instances were a device needed more power than the bus could supply to fire it up. You might try expanding the USB Root Hub that its connected to in Device Manager and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn this device off to save power" but thats a VERY long shot. Try a powered USB hub if you have one sitting around. I'm guessing its NOT the iLok since its fine on your other machines.

Re: ILOK gone wild
I did the clean install and careful uninstall. I even formated drives a few times just to be sure I start over clean.
Thing is.. I did upgraded Bios and I'm afraid that I shouldn't have. This machine worked perfect for 6 months and then suddenly got broken. Err.. Should the Ilok folder (in c:\Program files\ilok) contain any files after drivers installation?? There's nothing there?! |

Re: ILOK gone wild
If you think the Bios upgrade is at the bottom of this, then re-install the former Bios.

Re: ILOK gone wild
Here is what I've done to solve it:
If I go to device manager, disable the ilok and then enable it back, 2 times out of 3 it stays on and PT starts well. Since I spent 7 days reinstalling and rebooting and drain my brain allover, i decided that IT'S PERFECT like that! Regards |

Re: ILOK gone wild
I wonder if the USB port somehow got messed up. You might try adding a PCI(or PCIe) card with USB ports on it. They are cheap enough that if it doesn't work, you're only out $12(and now you have extra USB ports for other stuff)
