Dual Adapter question

[Jeremy Garchow]

Curious.

Are you logged in as administrator?

If so, just for yucks, try creating a new user that has admin privileges on your computer and see if it installs.

Good thought. I am logged in as the admin but I’ll give it a try.

Did you try redownloading the drivers?

I am not sure why it’s not working.

I’ve tried to download them several times. When I try to go through the install process this is what it says,

“Install Failed! The following install step failed: run preflight script for P2(japanese letters). contact the software manufacturer for assistance.”

Try repairing permissions on your boot drive.

[Luke Pearson]

That didn’t work either. Thanks so much for all your ideas. I know this is frustrating.

Well, I don’t know for sure. but this seems to be pointing to some sort of system error.

How aggressive are you willing to get? I have some suggestions, but we will be playing with fire and I don’t want to wipe your system out to unusable.

Do you have a clone of your hard drive?

I have that computer and my Duel does not work correctly with it. The P2 drivers installed fine. I can use P2CMS to view the contents of P2 cards and folders. But ingest results in kernel panic. Same happens with Shotput P2. It’s the old familiar “Duel Adapter doesn’t work with some Macbook Pros” thing.

I have to use “Archive to Folder” from FCP Log and Transfer or just a straight finder copy to transfer files to hard drive. So far, that has been reliable, but it’s not the same a a copy and verify process.

Do you have Sony SxS drivers installed?
