PVR USERS?
Message #197321
>>> In:Sync, makers of Razor Pro/Speed Razor Mach3. We just received the first ever shipped, retail version of Speed Razor and have been using/selling the PAR/PVR for years AND we also offer credit on PAR to PVR purchases.
Stephen, Running with Win 3.XX….What are you running? Michael
Hi Dennis, Just wanted to drop you a line to say: Yes, this is the same Jeff Pike that managed the Autodesk Autocad Forum a few years ago. I share the title of Primary Sysop on this Forum with Jeff, altho' lately, Jeff has been so busy with his "real"…
606-371-5533, ask for tech support
Daryl… Didn't realize that DPS did a 180 and gave us W95 drivers. As of two weeks ago they told us on the phone they would not be supporting W95, but the W3.1 drivers were stable and the NT drivers were also OK… but I just heard that they posted…
Steve… We haven't chatted with Dan in a week or so, but if the new 2.04 drivers are up on the board, we may try to pick them up tomorrow. I'm assuming they run bug free in NT 3.51 with or without the newshell ? I pick up my PVR…
Soft Engine
Message #197301
Will the Acad versio of Soft Engine work with 3DS given the right patches…? We have an extra Acad version, and I saw that it looked like they were the same program, with different extensions. Is this true? If so, what real advantage will SE give 3DS? It helps immensely…
PAR, PVR, 3DS$ and W95
Message #197298
>is there any chance I can access the PAR (now or or in the future) using Windows 95. Henry, I was informed direct from DPS that the PAR is, or maybe better to say will be supported under windows 3.11 and Win95. I have a local customer who is using…
More PVR purchasing tips
Message #197296
To All Oct. 27/95 Here are some more purchasing tips that might help you configure a DPS PVR, in:sync Speed Razor Mach 3 system on Windows NT. Many of the tips are not new, but useful if you didn't already know them. I can't vouch for 100% accuracy but would…
Mark, >>I think the video question comes from the 16 bit buffer (65K colors). That mode offers the highest video performance for the card.
Mike… Thanks for the tip on PLUM card. Will look into it and will report back.
Dave: >> Is anyone SURE that the speed of the JAZ will be great enough to serve as a source for a CD-R image, or has it all been conjecture
Gary… A brand new product is the PLUM card. You might've seen their ad in the latest New Media. Depending on how deeply they discount it, it might be an alternative down the road. Right now it's around $5999 list, but it does include some audio capabilities. \\\. ========================= >-===–…
Dan… A real manual? OHMYGAWD! Maybe they'll even have documentation for the SCSI disk evaluater? I've come to really enjoy very graphic installations on CD, and I hope they eventually get around to that. With all that storage, they could do a beautiful tutorial on every aspect of the PVR…
Kate; >> One question: where did you read this warning? Well……, I hate to mention it, but it is in a copy of the October issue of "Key Solutions" which is Cadkey's newletter. On page 4 is a Large Red "WARNING!" message that stated that PKWARE is aware of the…
I'll get this to you in private e-mail.. Thanks!!
Thanks!!
The bogus pkz300 has actually been around for a couple of months. Sounds like someone is just doing a better (?) job of spreading it around. LAM
PMJI, but what is the JAZ-drive? I followed the discussion but still could't figure out. Murat (from Germany, where anything happens half a year later, who says it's only 7 hours ?)
Have you actually looked at a PAR displayed sphere rendered to 752X480 at 0.851 AR on your monitor? While I don't have a PVR, I doubt it has the option of 640×480 output which is 1.0 AR. It would seem likely that your monitor is out of calibration. I do…
>(I know the drives aren't quite available, I just thought someone might have talked w/ Iomega, or seen a spec sheet, or something….)?< I don't know about the image, but here's some info on my beta unit. The one I have is a SCSI device, I can't remember if it…
Jim, >> "can't find protected mode ADI driver"
Hi, Just from your message we created a sphere and on the top and one side we placed square boxes. The Sphere took up about 2/3's of the screen. At .9 the video looks a little bit squashed. At 1.0 it was way to long.. I use a Sony 13"…
#Aspect Ratio, PVR
Message #197210
The aspect ratio for the PAR is .85, because 640 divided by 752 = .85. So, the aspect ratio for the PVR should be 640 divided by 720 = .89. When I render a sphere at 720 x 480 x .89 and view it on the TV through the PVR,…
Thanks again Kevin.. you are a valuable asset… just wish I could pay you… oh well BTW… looking for 9 GIG drives and a BETA SP…
Digitizers
Message #197207
I am interested in digitizing 3D models into 3DS. I have looked at FARO SpaceArm, MicroScribe 3D and Digibot laser scanner. Does anyone have experience of these, or any other similar digitizers, if so what do you think of them. Alan.

#DPS TECH?
Message #197195
Does anyone have a DPS tech support line phone number? The BBS isn't very helpful and I don't have their number…
Your not having a "can't find protected mode ADI driver" problem are you??? If you are, let me know how it turns out, I have the same problem. If you know anyone who may be able to help, let me know. thanks Jim
Michael, Are you running 3.x or NT? SCL
Bob: Is anyone SURE that the speed of the JAZ will be great enough to serve as a source for a CD-R image, or has it all been conjecture (I know the drives aren't quite available, I just thought someone might have talked w/ Iomega, or seen a spec sheet,…
>>> Has anyone had any luck obtaining the NT drivers for the Perception? I have been trying for two days with no luck. I have tried the DPS ftp site directly, going in through the In-Sync site and I have also tried the DPS BBS. I did manage to get…
Hi Dennis, Ditto on thanks for the warning. One question: where did you read this warning? I am tempted to post a news flash, so that the greatest number of people have the opportunity to be informed, but I would like to be able to quote my (your) source. TIA…
Marius… Millennium is running fine in our new P133 with PVR/AD2500/NT O/S. \\\. ========================= >-===– >-==*- /
#PVR Premiere WIN95
Message #197137
Well, I couldn't get the PVR NT Premiere combo going, so I moved down to WIN95 with the new PVR Win95 drivers. I works really well and is going to hold me until the Razor NT is released in November. Actually it almost works really well. When I have a…

>>Did you check the MARS file in the Hardware Library?
Murph: >> …when you say "Have I tried keeping the identical installation but >> just removing all the memory above 64megs… What I was trying to see was if QEMM was the problem, or the memory. Use the same QEMM configuration for both tests. First, have just 64 megs of…
Dennis: >> Thanks for all the tips in Greg Pyro's class. We do fires well, too! No more "Pyrosmaniac" jokes, please! :^) Greg Pyros
Dave: You've got me thinking about creating some personalized disks as well. Yep, I'm going to create me the greatest Ska collection ever put on disc. BIG, BIG, Monkey Man … Getting huge mofo files to service bureaus is one use for the JAZ drive which I'm looking at. Once…

#Bogus files erase HD
Message #197078
I just read a notice of WARNING about a bogus version of (pkzip/pkunzip) PKZ300.zip and PKZ300b.exe. It states that, PKWARE says someone on the internet is distributing files under the pretext of being an upgrade to the pkzip/pkunzip file compression program. The item further states that it is NOT a…
No I don't really like it. I suppose its okay for multimedia, but not for tape.
Hello, Jason.. I don't have any information about this board and I still waiting for answer from here. By the way, how is your Video Blaster RT300? Does it good or fit you need? To me, I don't really like it!! Dennis..

Hi: I just received my new version of 3ds4 and of course am very anxious to try it as you can imagine. I've been using release 2 for about 6 months. However, the new version did not come with a new dongle in the package. so I kept the old…
#New PVR Software
Message #197059
I was on the phone with DPS to day and they inform me that they have just (Last Monday) put up the latest PVR software Version 2.04. This new version has *on line* the new 400 page user manual that is soon to be sent out to users. Dan also…
