Punisher5.0 Posted April 18, 2003 Share Posted April 18, 2003 Have you deleted your old video card's driver yet? You should do that before you install the driver's for your new card. How do games run with it? Also, ATI's drivers have a reputation for being crappy so make sure you get the latest one off their website. I hope this helps .

JagMX Posted April 18, 2003 Author Share Posted April 18, 2003 its notbeing sued as the regular video card, its just a card for strictly capturing video. I dld the latest drviers to make sure and i installed everyhting and it still isnt working, everytime i hit "tv" it keeps giving me that message even with what i just dl'd that took me quite some time on DIALUP i even went to "pc check" so it can run tests for compatibility, and it told me a bunch of crap like my 1800+ processor is less than 233mhz and its not mmx compat, even tho it is and a whole bunch of other bullshit - i dont know what the fuck is going on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
