I used to have no problem with my DJ console. But now I get the message DJ Console disconnected.
What should I do? I checked the cables, I even downloaded the latest driver 5-1-2005.
Still no connection.
Thanks for your help!

similar problem after installing latest version of VDJ for the DJC and updating the hercules drivers - I get a "DirectInput not init." message.
DJC drivers installed first, then the VDJ update, restarted several times and uninstalled drivers and reinstalled - problem persists...
I've contacted Herc tech support but as yet no reply - anyone else experienced and subsequently solved this problem?
Cheers.

I installed the new drivers, and had the same directinput error. I rebooted, tried different USB ports etc but it still didn't work. Somehow, two days later, despite not doing *anything* to the system, it started working properly :-S

Hey, was wondering about this post...
Never encountered it, untill I know had the 'DirectInput' erro.
Recalling seeing the message, I came back to the board.
But no point of light.
Uninstalled/reinstalled.
Suddenly I saw the light.....
I disconnected my USB soundcard, and plugged the HDJC in the other USB port.
Started the the DJ console Mixer (green alien), and guess what....
It worked.
I recalled having troubles with my USB soundcard, having it recognized by the system.
And the controlling app shouting that the USB bandwith was too small.
So this put me on the right track.
And maybe that can explain the behaviour as one of you guys explained, the after a few days it started to work. Maybe USB bandwith consumption dropped, and HDJC had enough to communicate.

your error comes from testing an illegal version of VDJ.

Update Direct X.. this error message is a directX error message.
Or, the drivers of Hercules since the error is a input device error for directX (that Virtual DJ uses)
So chances are very likely that :
1) Direct X is corrupted
2) Hercules Drivers are corrupted
A reinstall is what you need to try, and/or update of drivers...

Did you do a firmware update of the Hercules console recently?
An update that maybe did not go well...
Because if you have the problem of the console on more than one pc, AND it worked before, its pretty sure you did something with the console, OR did something on BOTH pc's that have messed up things.
Can you try to recall what you might have done?

ok...
So you did a bit of installing of Norton.. 2006 and 2005, and a system restore.
Now, that would mess up your system maybe.. on ONE pc.
But you have this problem on BOTH pcs.. Thats what I dont understand.
Or did you do the Norton 2006 thing on BOTH pc's?
I will tell you this... Norton is really a "virus" in itself sometimes. It install itself "all over" your PC, monitoring all kinds of programs (like it should), but it can be damn hard to uninstall.
Norton has a clean uninstall app at their website, that might be good to clean stuff up.
Anyways, even IF Norton messed up things inside your Windows install, it should be possible to fix:
1) UNINSTALL Hercules
2) UNINSTALL Virtual DJ
3) Download the LATEST DirectX and install it.
4) Rebooth your PC.
5) Install Virtual DJ
6) Install Hercules drivers.
If that dont work, then you are out of luck, with a driver mess it can be hard to fix any other way than reinstalling your system (Windows).
But hopefully step 1-6 above will help :)
