TV card IRQ?

APV_SAV

I am planning to buy a TV card but I have only 1 PCI slot left and that is the one next to my AGP card with a GEForce video card. I am wondering if a TV Card uses IRQ and do you think it can share with the geforce? TIA.

I recently aquired a SyQuest SparQ 1. 0 gigabyte removable drive. When I installed it into my machine, all went well. When I installed it into my operating systems, WindowsME and Windows2000 Professional, all was well.

Removing Whistler safely from Dual Boot configuration

ZedAgent

Greetings, I have two hard drives, each hard drive is seperated into 2 partitions, which makes 4 partitions total. For now I'll just number them 1-4. Partition 1 is the boot partition, it doesn't have any system files on it, only the boot.

Problems with sound in win2k

isaacg

Hi, I've got some weird problems with sound in Windows 2000. In general windows apps, everything has a reverb/echo/ambience effect, which is very annoying. There is a similar effect in games, only on some it makes everything sound stuttery, like it is replaying sounds over themselves.

Asus V7700 and 3D glasses

JediBaron

I just got myself one of those 7700 Geforce2 GTS's and spent like 2 hours tinkering with the glasses to get them to work right. Thought I could try saving someone else the time. The first thing I found is that you need to have a monitor that can do at least 1280x960 if you want to get any OpenGl games to run in 3D.

I know there was a thread on this a while back, but didn't really answer my question. Just turned into a flamefest about SBLive problems. Is the situation any better now? I've been thinking about a SBLiveValue, but not sure.

Faster: UltraSCSI, or ATA100?

Down8

I plan on getting a new hardrive soon , and was debating SCSI vs. ATA100. I already have an Adaptec 2940U. This is just my home rig, 'Net, gaming, word processing, etc. I'm looking for comments/suggestions on the performance difference between picking up a ~18GB UltraSCSI drive for my card, and a ~20GB+ATA100 card.
