I've just bought an MIO2882 after years of not having any and I'm finding some surprises. The MIO is an early +DSP 2882 unit. I've installed the bundle of MIO related MIO files marked as current on the website and enabled Legacy box support but when I start the console it sometimes locks up and the MIO puts out a 2 k tone on the headphone jack. I usually have to restart the console and the power cycle the MIO to get things to settle and even then the console will not fully reflect the stat of the MIO even when set to take it's state. Things like having to the change the monitor level to get It to snap to the actual level and changing the Digital IO state from SPDIF to AES and back to SPIDF to recognize the selection. Worst issue is using the "Identify Box " function will lock up the Console software and generate a sort of low passed pink noise at max level. Power cycling the RIO is the only fix for that.

Firmware is updated to V2.2.08 that came with the software bundle.


Is this working as expected for a box this old or have I done something wrong on the software install? If the later how do I correct it? If the former will installing 3D cards fix these issues or is there likely some other hardware problem?

Thanks
