Primax Colorado USB 19200 Scanner

billimek
Has anyone been able to make this scanner work in Windows 2000? Primax claims they are making Windows 2000 drivers, buy who knows when those will be released. Like a lot of other hardware manufacturers, it seems that they want to wait until after Windows 2000 is release to START working on drives.

Currently running a Matrox G400SH. Excellent image quality. . . but. . . Matrox doesn't always write the greatest drivers (application and system issues). I've read independent reviews that the image quality of Elsa's GeForce card is the best, along with excellent drivers.

Need help with Com-Ports-Problem under Win2k pro

wannakill
Since I installed win2k, it doesn't recognize my Com-Ports properly. I already tried to reassign resources and switched PnP OS installed to yes, but it didn't help. Win just says the Coms wouldn't work and should be replaced.

Voodoo3 DVD Hardware Assist ???

Wintermute
As stated at the 3dfx website the Voodoo3 offers full 30 fps MPEG-2 Playback with no dropped frames, and Soft DVD support for all major CODECs. I have the Voodoo3 2000 PCI card and was wondering if this meant that I could use it to decode DVD movies or at least assist in the decoding? I do not own a decoder card btw.

Riva 128/V2 replacement card suggestions?

sheared
Since it now appears the V2 W2K solution isn't that good, I have a question. I've got a PPro 200. Back when I was trying to decide between the V2, V3, and TNT video card EVERYONE told me how the V2 performance is much better on lower end machines (sigh - I remember the days where I wasn't lower end), and the TNT di ...

trouble with SBLive in win2000

kofman
Whenever I try to update the drivers, I always get the same error message, something like error, section not found in INF or something like that. This happened with the Dell Drivers, and also with the default driver in the WINNT folder, as well as the universal INF posted here.
