Marvel/SECAM troubles
I've had my G200 Marvel-TV for about a year and a half and been quite pleased with it, until last month.
I set my HD up for multiple Boots ('95, '98 and Linux. I made it to where '95 was on the first part of the drive but '98 was still the default OS to boot but my PC-VCR would always come up into SECAM, I couldn't force it into a working NTSC to save my life. I updated my Marvel drivers to the latest and nothing. After screwing with it for days I decided to try putting the '98 partition before the '95 and BOOM!, it worked. After using Norton Ghost to save this image of '98 I moved it to the second partition like before with '95 on the first, everything was still fine, until two days ago.
Everything was back into SECAM and my old Ghost images with the working NTSC setup no longer worked.
As I sat down tonight to ask you people for your words of wisdom and BOOM!, again, the @#&@&*@&! thing is working in NTSC for no reason.
So what I come to you for now is, has anyone had this problem or know whats causing this so that I can put a stop to this instability that has come about with no reason that I can see after a year and a half of perfect performance.
Thank you ahead of time for your much needed help!!!! B-)
