Behringer stalls my mac

I bought the fca202 interface and plugged it into my mac and it worked fine for an hour or two. and then it just cut off and whenever i try and switch my mac on it doesnt start up, just a black screen. i can unplug the fca202 and the mac carries on starting up as if nothing was wrong. the interface might just be faulty and needs taking back, but i thought id try somethings before i do that.

Yes, i'm surprised it hasent kernel paniked. Is the interface bus powered? What Macintosh/ OS are you running?

My behringer f-control audio fca202 do not install the drivers

This appears to be a very old device that was intended for use with Windows XP:

I suspect that the software is incompatible with Windows 7.

I have upgraded from Win XP to Win 7 and the only thing not working is my FCA202 Audio interface. I have downloaded all copies of the driver I can find, even the one that Behringer recommends for XP, Vista...

Try uninstalling the hardware, and then reinstall using the software downloaded from Behringer, rather than plug and play.

Driver installation problem

Some computer firewire interface's don't work very well under Windows... However...

Make sure you follow the installation directions to the letter... especially in regard to whether the cable is plugged in while installing...

Also you MIGHT try installing the software in SAFE MODE.

Then in the audio editing software you often have to configure the audio in/out device.

This can realy be frustrating... I just fought a UA 25EX to get it to work and the problem was an incorrect switch to the sample rate.

Behringer F-CONTROL AUDIO... Problem:

I had a similar problem where as I could use the mic no problem at all but couldn't hear anything through the headphones. The simple solution was to disable the driver for my internal soundcard. It took me 48 hours to work it out! Good luck.
