The card always 'tried' to work but the older the Video Card drivers the worse the problem. If you moved the window it left mousedroppings all over the place. You could trash your screen to the point of illegability. -BUT- when you killed WinTV, the screen cleared up and it worked fine. Trident-9680 DirectDraw drivers dont work. The latest Trio64V+ drivers are fine. Kinda a moot point for us. The WinTV card is in a 486 BSD Box and will eventually be used to capture stupid pictures. I am having a neato problem, but until I understand what it -is- I'm not gonna bring it up. ( takes 20 seconds for rgb16 to capture a picture ). +-----------------------------------------------+ : Tom Arnold - No relation to Rosanne : : SysAdmin/Pres - TBI, Ltd ( inna.net ) : : The Middle Peninsula's Internet Connection : +-----------------------------------------------+
