Hi there. I hope someone can help but I'm afraid it might
just be a probelm with my system. Anyway, I'm having a
hard time getting my TV Card to work. I've got a ATI TV-
Wonder VE (an older card). My machine is older as well--A
Gateway G6-233 running 96MB RAM (I'll be upgrading to
384MB shortly). We recently had to restroe the computer
due to a virus and installed Windows 2000. I installed the
ATI MMC 7.1 and the required drivers. The TV card is
recognized and the picture is received, but the reception
is not too good. It is very herky/jerky. When I load the
TV viewer I received the following message: "Video Capture
and TV-on-Demand Performance will be degraded on this
system as DMA for the hard disk is not enabled. Please
check the System Setting in the Windows Control Panel for
the following devices "IOMEGA ZIP 100". This is obviously
my ZIP disc. However, when I check in the Control Panel I
don't see anything out of the ordinary. So, I'm hoping
that someone might have some insight into what I can do to
improve the performance of the TV tuner. Please feel free
to post a reply here or e-mail me
at "mjtyrkus@hotmail.com". Thanks in advance for your help.
