Ok..Hi, I could use a little expert help here. A little amateur help might be good to since I'm not paying. My Problem.... I have A Marvel G200. I captured several clips with PC VCR-Remote. Reports 0 frames dropped every time. When playing back the video looks like it is on fast forward and it is over in a couple seconds. I read all the tips and did all the usual stuff I think...like, disable write behind cache, video tips off, this machine is a network server ,DMA enabled, Busmaster driver, Yadda yadda yadda, anybody have a suggestion?? And last but not least..drum roll please..... my system is...

Abit BH6
Celleron 300a @ 450
128 mb pc100 ram
SB Live! Value
Marvel G200
Memorex 4224 CD RW channell 2 primary
BTC 44X CD channell2 slave
WD 8.4 GB UDMA 66 system drive
Maxtor 20.4GB DiamondMax+7200 capt. drive
PCI modem/no network card

I had this problem when I disabled virtual memory. The video played back really fast. The problem only went away when I turned virtual memory back on.

Disable the SBLive and see if that works !

If so, download and install the latest SBL drivers. This problem was widespread at the end of last year.

Ahem, that problem was fixed with the matrox driver

Hello,

Be sure that IRQ triggering is set to level rather than edge in your M/B Bios.

Oh and check assign IRQ to vga is enabled as well (in your m/b BIOS).

Viola! Success!
I installed(actually re-installed, I think) DX 7, Powerdesk 5.30 and Video tools1.51 and it works like a charm (as far as I can tell) no drops and perfect playback, even from the C: drive to!

For all the complaining I've read I can tell you it really wasn't that hard, I popped the thing in there loaded the LATEST drivers and presto,it works perfect. And I have the dreaded SB Live! and the Abit BH6 to. The picture quality is great also.
