boomana Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Shelly, ouch. Hope you can get it figured out, but as Al said, don't sweat it. I went to Whole Foods with my mother this evening. Lordy. I will not be doing that again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ironbut Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hey Shelly, did you try just unplugging it for a minute or so and plugging it back in (reset/reboot?). Like the other guys said,.. a software glitch for sure. Certainly nothing to get upset about. Congrats to Lloyd and Becky! 39 years is just amazing!

shellylh Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Thanks for all the positive comments guys. I just hate thinking that I screwed something up. It's hard for me to enjoy the beautiful music fearing that I could have screwed something up with the music that I don't even know about.... I know that it probably not the case. agreed, that minor a glitch would be almost impossible as a hardware failure. Well, that is good to know. Although putting the top on backward I think could have damaged something in theory, but everything looked ok. The thing is that the back and front aren't the same. The parts in the front go up higher that the parts in the back. I put the top on and pushed it down but it wouldn't go all the way on. I was able to pry it off and put it on the right way (which was much easier). The instructions said to make sure one part was towards the back of the DAC and I was thinking that was the part farthest away from me. Really dumb, I know. Put a message up at the ps audio forums and people are suggesting that I change the firmware. At this point, I cannot get the DAC to recognize the older firmware but I will try that. The other suggestion is to open it up and make sure all the connections near the front are ok. The third suggestion is to contact PS Audio. I don't have time to open it back up tonight (and probably no time to call PS Audio during business hours tomorrow) but maybe an email to them would be useful.

Like the other guys said,.. a software glitch for sure. Certainly nothing to get upset about. Yeah, I tried that for sure. (I worked in a computer lab in college for 3 years so this is the first thing I try with anything.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shellylh Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Was able to change the firmware to an older version (2.1.0) and still have the same problem. Sigh. It's beginning to look like a hardware problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Took apart my 15R (wanted to install 7200 hard drive and mSATA)...apparently the manual they directed me towards is for the 17R which has the mSATA in a different place (shocker)...so I'm beginning to think I won't be bringing a laptop with me. The VAIO just doesn't have the battery life, and I got an extra for the 15R. Maybe the tablet and phoneblet will be good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 I am chatting with 'Sasi M' @ Dell -- that might be the greatest name I've ever chatted with, computer related or otherwise. I'm going to have to add that to my list of recommended stage names for female lead singers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was the head of HR at the parent company: Nimrod Zipper Another was a Service Engineer working in the US: Uzi Israel Both happened to be very very nice guys..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salt Peanuts Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 (edited) I once lived on the same floor as a guy named Phuc. He had a roommate named Trong. EDIT - IIRC, "u" in Phuc had some symbol or other above it. Edited January 29, 2013 by Salt Peanuts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jvlgato Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 Knew a guy named Tri Trong in residency. I know a shrink here named Dr. Couch. And another one named Dr. Brilliant! Anne has a colleague named Dr. Love. Too bad she's a family doc, and not a cardiologist! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanth Posted January 29, 2013 Report Share Posted January 29, 2013 I resurrected someone today (prolly the main reason I am drinking a syrong red alone on a Monday). No magic, just directed electricity. Though, if I could declare I blessed him and sent him on his way, that would be much much cooler.
