Mike, Have you (or anyone else) actually installed/used a PVR with the WinNT s/w? I got a set of early beta NT s/w (v0.01), but still can't get the system running on my PCI bus NT machine. The "dpspvr service" fails with an Event Log error "microcode write failure" followed by an "incorrect parameter" error. I've also had an error stating "can't create a file when that file already exists". To check the rest of the system I pulled another machine apart (one without a PCI bus) and fitted its HD containing Win3.11. Everything worked fine with the standard Win3.1 PVR s/w, so I know the MB, PCI slots, etc are OK. Any idea what the "late Beta" PVR version number is up to? Any other testers, please contact me… – Martin Kay, ZEN Computer Services
