Hi Kevin!
Your advice is much the same as what I originaly got from Gateway. Running
ATI's RAMBIOS.SYS and using QEMM are supposed to help. It does speed up Windows
performance and 3DS screen writes, but my rendering performance is still
dragging. Maybe I need to tweak QEMM some more, but I posted my problem on the
CIS Gateway 2000 b. board and the SysOp there told me that my problems were
inherent to the Micronics motherboard design and that there is nothing I can do
about it. Good thing to know…. too bad it's about 6 months too late for me
to send it back.
Howz things at CSA? I still owe you a demo tape. Hopefully we'll get it done
in the next couple of weeks. BTW I was looking into a new frame buffer and was
thinking about the Matrox Illuminator Pro since it has component Betacam output
option–giving me higher res plus no more transcoder. However I understand
that Diaquest does not support it directly (with their Action Animator
software) so I may not be able to digitize for rotoscoping. Hmmm. There's
always a catch. Got any ideas?
