The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Fine Artist for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.1, 1.1a
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
When you use the Vacuum Tool in Fine Artist, and you have installed the
MediaVision Pro Audio Spectrum Sound Card, the computer may stop responding
(hang). (For similar behavior in Creative Writer, see the More Information
section.)
RESOLUTION
==========
Contact Media Vision for an updated driver:
Media Vision, Inc. (510) 770-9905
If you are using a Pro Audio Spectrum driver, but are unsure about which version
you are using, see your Windows printed documentation or online Help for
information about how to determine your driver in Windows.
MORE INFORMATION
================
The Vacuum Tool uses a cyclic sound, rather than a short sound, which, when used
in conjunction with the Pro Audio Spectrum Sound Card and some versions of the
Pro Audio sound driver, can cause the computer to hang.
NOTE: If you experience this problem when using Creative Writer with a Sound
Blaster 16 card, change the HDMA setting to DMA. You can do this by using the SB
Configuration icon found in the Sound Blaster 16 program group. When you run
this icon, it displays the DMA and HDMA settings. Change the HDMA setting to
DMA.
