I've just built a new machine I intend to DJ with. This one has XP (cos of the Hyperthreading CPU) the previous one had 2000.
I downloaded the latest drivers from the Hercules site, installed them, plugged in the console when prompted. I set it to ASIO, kicked up VirtualDJ (I have registered 2.06), configured all the advanced audio routing and everything looked good... Although I was having some terrible visual and audio skipping effects on VDJ if I wiggled too many controls on the console at one.
This isn't a low spec machine either. Shuttle SB61G2V4 P4 3.2, 2x256Meg running dual channel. 120Gig WD drive with 8meg cache.
Then I unplugged the console....
When I plugged it back in again, even into the same USB port, XP goes "Oooh, found something new"... and then wants to go looking for a new driver. If I cancel it I end up with 3 "Hecules DJ console" items in the hardware list with the yellow !. If I let windows search I get a "Hercules DJ console bulk" instead. (Which the DJ console mixer system tray app doesn't like, it says "console disconnected".
The only way I have managed to get it working is to uninstall and reinstall the 1_HDJ_2005.exe hercules driver file every time I plug the bl**dy thing in!
Can anyone help? I've even tried to find the drivers manually, but they're certainly not under program files hercules.

Okay, it seems to have sorted itself out now... A few uninstalls and reinstalls of the drivers, and now it finds them, and assigns them correctly no matter which port I use...
Weird. Good old XP, nothing like a logical operating system... Nothing like it at all!
I'm still having terrible problems with VDJ though.
If I put a track on the left deck, play it, and with nothing on the right desk at all, just move the right volume control up and down I get jumpy scrolling of the wave form at the top and the audio clitches.
Obviously this is no use at all.
My previous machine with win2k, and a p4 2.8 didn't have this problem.
Can anyone help?
