Fast Track 66 MB

[Enrico Ng]

I have a Athlon650 on a MSI 6167 MB.
I have a Marvel G400-TV, sblive value, and
a fasttrack66 raid card.
I get busnoise when I capture.
I've called up promise and after many hours we have basically narrowed down the the MB.
or the chipset on the MB.

If anyone has been able to capture video using a fasttack66, athlon, and the marvelg400tv, please tell me what MB you are using.

Enrico Ng,

I have a problem with bus noise as well using an Intel PIII. The only way I managed to get around it was to set the Stripe Block down all the way to 1Kb. This impacts RAID performance . . .

Do you have a Via chipset? I think that may be the problem - not the motherboard. Of course I'll have to replace my motherboard to get rid of the Via chipset . . .

thats whyI want to find one without it

The MSI-6167 has an AMD 750 chipset, not VIA.

[Enrico Ng]

isnt that the same as a VIA chipset?

[RoGuE]

No.
