    A word to the wise.
    I repeatedly made comments about my perfect video capture and how happy i was with my marvel. that was just before xmas...

    I have only now (seemingly, cross fingers touch wood, turn around touch the ground) got my PC back in a semi stable conditon. after shit loadsa probs which has seen me replace or swap every component in my pc and spend about £500 this year

    So if all's going well, be pleased, were all pleased for you...

      heheheh
      I will praise my Marvel G400 because it is a very nice card. But, you may see my name when I gripe about it for other problems. it is a very nice al in one card, and being able to produce video with it as a tool and play all those applications and games makes it ohh so very nice. The 2D is outstanding. But, in the game department, it has it's share of problems. Not sure if that has to do with it being a multipurpose card. Just chiming in and being this thread is tucked away in the controverisal but not very well read 'Soap-Box' section of MURC.
