Tony, Thanks for the quick reply…I had a good laugh when you mentioned the 3 ring binder…I got the same thing but it included 4 diskettes with it, Install, Power9, Windows and VGA driver disks. What level card did you get…I have the L25…The Power9 icons are pretty poorly illustrated…
Tony, Good hearing from you again…I got "alot" of response from #9 when I told them that I was going to ship the GXI back to them faster than they sent it to me…It seems that they are beta testing a few add ons to the card that should correct…
