Doug… Rather than try to build/debug a PVR box myself, we've decided to have Mark DeMazza at Mind Computer Consultants in CT build a P133 machine for us. I've chatted with Mark on CI$ on and off for well over a year, more recently on the phone and yesterday we spent several hours discussing the system hardware and software. After we've had a chance to put this machine thru it's paces, I'll try to post some observations on my level of satisfaction with the machine's funtionality. I agree with the suggestion that there might be a need for a library file on the topic of PVR do's /don't's or just on performance. A custom builder like Mark has some tricks up his sleeve that might make a machine just a wee bit faster, or a tad more open-minded about certain components <G> and I'll leave that up to him to discuss. BTW, neither Dan nor Eric at DPS Canada knew exactly what the supposed conflict of the Matrox Millennium was, only that they had received some calls a while back, but no feedback on problem solving. We will try the Matrox as the first card. \\\. ========================= >-==<MIKE(>=– >-==*- /
