  • Hypertheading and Matrox Video

    Hi,
    I am putting my Matrox Marvel G400 in a new Motherboard ASUS P4P800 Deluxe with a 2.4c and the MotherBoard and Processor are both 800 FSB with HyperThreading. I stumbled on information that that Matrox G450 series, and maybe others need a patch to use some of the features. I went to the Matrox forums and asked if the Matrox Marvel G400 needs the patch too, if so email it to me. I could not get a straight answers. But that's what you do if yo need it (see the threads there about this subject and the patch, a *.DLL file) Anyone else know if some of the features like the PCR/VCR feature and/or others and which cards need the patch?

    I wil soon find out as install this computer in a few days. I will be taking the video card out later ( a few weeks) and move it to a second computer, as I wil need a much newer and faster video card. But that's another subject for later.

    Thank you.

        Thank you for all the latest info...

        BTW,
        I was sent a patch from matrox support, in case I need it when I install the G400 marvel in a computer with Hyperthreading, which I should have installed shortly...
