Sage Causing Reboot of PC

[mangriotis]

I have been ripping DVD's to my 2nd HDD (a WD200GB). My theory is that I filled the drive beyond the 'leave free 25GB' limit that I imposed for both drives. Then when Sage began to record additional material, it freaked, locked up and rebooted my machine. I wasn't sure what was going on at first, but noticed that it seemed to reboot on the hour and on the half hour.

Now, when I start Sage, it sets my capture card (PVR-250) to 'ignore'. It records nothing new, but I can play recorded stuff without problems. When I remove the 'ignore' line from sage.properties and set my sources up again. It locks up and/or reboots the pc when I record anything or try to watch live tv.

I reinstalled Sage (both repair and complete reinstallation of v1.4.10), start up Sage, and it has a few conflicts right when it boots up. As I answer these, Sage just terminates with no warning.

Should I turn logging on (how)? Send in my .bin file?

Please help.

Make sure you have a clean Hauppauge driver install wit hthe latest drivers as per the instructions from the Hauppauge website.

Send your properties file to support, I'll take a look at it.

I thought it was a Sage problem because Sage caused symptoms to appear.

However, I ran Memtest86 and am getting over 1000000 errors on test 5... looks like a memory problem...

Sorry to blame it on Sage. I will rectify and report results. I should have known it was a memory thing with the rebooting...

I set less aggressive memory timings and ran Memtest86 with no errors through several passes...

Booted up Sage (after updating drivers to latest released version, PVR250_17_21226, and updated decoder, v4.21154) and reinstalled channel data. Everything is kosher again and working fine.

Like I said before, the wife and I have grown to rely on Sage for our tv watching habit, and I was starting to freak when I thought I would have to be without it for a while...
