I have a PVR-500 and a K8T800 chipset (still an AMD processor, at least). When I first installed the PVR-500, the computer refused to boot past the BIOS. Removing it sent everything back to normal. The cause was something along the lines of funky interrupt handling in the PVR-500. The discussion I found about it is here: http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=2212&page=1&pp=10 Following one of the suggestions there, I updated my BIOS to the latest one on the ASUS web site and that fixed it. I've had no unexplained reboots since. Try doing a BIOS upgrade, following the manufacturer's instructions, and generally being careful about it (since BIOS upgrades gone wrong aren't easy to fix). -- Greg Baker, Lecturer School of Computing Science Simon Fraser University Burnaby, BC, V5A 1S6 E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is Sponsored by the Better Software Conference & EXPO September 19-22, 2005 * San Francisco, CA * Development Lifecycle Practices Agile & Plan-Driven Development * Managing Projects & Teams * Testing & QA Security * Process Improvement & Measurement * http://www.sqe.com/bsce5sf _______________________________________________ ivtv-devel mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ivtv-devel
