Ok. When I bought this card, I had a total stranger tell me that if I wanted to watch the input on my computer without buying software, I was supposed to use some program that started with a D, and had an obscenely obscure name. Well, I wracked my brain for days stressing over it, and to solve this problem again, I bought a palm. BUT that's a story for later.

I need a free DVR program (Because I'm already tired of spending money this year.) that will work with the ATI AV200 video in. Yahoo's had promise, but it doesn't have support for the AV200 yet, or any of the AIW's. Which kinda sucks because as soon as I saw a X1900 AIW I was gonna get one. 22 inch monitor, beautiful clarity, The few minutes I had WinDVR3, Xbox looked okay on it.

    None work with the AV200. The AV200 isn't so much of a Tv tuner card as it is a single source capture card. Remember those expander cards for the Matrox series that let you record from a camera interface? Something like that, but it's S-video/RCA Video in.

    So, lemme get this straight. I'm supposed to dual boot just to use my Composite/S-video in. I lose a hard drive to linux just so I can watch tv?

    I'm just putting options out there - keep in mind you don't need to loose a hard drive you'd need to lose about 5 gigs of a hard drive.

    Every hard drive I've had more than one partition on died rather fast, much faster than drives that just had one. May just be me, and my intensive use of them, but I go through about three drives a year.

    What the hell do you do? I run a network of about 70 terminals and I only go through about 2 hard drives a year and that's a bad year.

    On average, I move drive-to-drive about 200GB a day, and I think that's actually not that accurate, since this week I moved some raw dumps of something that I'm not telling you the name of to Mana (Another machine I own) that just shy filled up the drives on it(2 160GB drives). And last friday, I filled up my brand new Seagate twice, using it as a temporary stop on something I was downloading, and it's 238GB physical. But today, I just archived some stuff, like 60GB of my TiVo downloads and stuff, and my ghost image of my hard drive.

    You gotta cut back on the porn. After awhile you get porn vision.

    Oh come on, is porn what everyone assumes? Jesus. No, It's not porn..Atleast not all of it, anyway. Okay, just a small fraction of some strange crap, Like Futanari Lesbiens 1-3, but hey, that's my business. By the way, There are no more unsecured wireless networks that I don't own in my area.

    Pron will forever be what people assume. It's what us geeks apparently do after all. But I got tired of wasting hard drive space on that so I hacked satellite instead. Plus keeps my wife happy she loves the pron :)

    I already suggested that one, but doesn't work for his needs.
