Sloooow Rollin'

My Road Hog recently decided to take ages to go to a cue. If anything on the console is above 0s, it makes twice the time to fade. Most of the cues I have are 3s because of the venue being a church. But occasionally I and a colleague use the console to program other (more exciting) shows. Loops that are 3 step loops at .2s a pice are 2 whole seconds between cues. Release times are about 12 seconds to release.
I updated the software Sunday to 3.2.5 and it did not do anything to help. Noting to my knowledge has changed. (Default times, etc.) The actual software is just sluggish. Even when I checked integrity it took it a good 6 seconds to process it.
So...What's up? (My inside says: WHATS WRONG WITH MY BABY??)

Thanks for the help.

(This may very well be operator error done by a volunteer that somehow got really deep down in a menu and screwed something up that I simply didn't think to check, though I doubt it.)

  • That's really odd, and frankly I have no idea what would cause that.

    Does the console boot and run at normal speed, or does it seem slower than it used to in general? Do you have any external USB devices connected, or other non-standard hardware?

    A few things you could try that might make a difference:

    Replace the coin cell battery on the motherboard.

    Reset the BIOS settings to defaults then put them back to the correct settings.

    Replace the hard drive (Unlikely to be the cause, but who knows)

    Plug the drive into a different SATA port on the motherboard.
