Mediavoice is using the same config on Asus motherboards. We tend to stick with 
the Hauppauge capture cards as we've never had a problem with them, although I 
continue to search for a quad capture card that is trouble free and has four 
S-Vid ins.

The latest room config Mediavoice built uses a Colorgraphics Xentra GT4 Quad 
display but we had to go to the PCI version to get acceptable performance out 
of the card. All four outputs on this card are OpenGL compliant which is 
important in the visualization work in which this group is engaged.

   We use the same with 2x2.8 GHz Xeons, 1 Gb memory, 2x40 Gb disks,
   Matrox Parhelia display card (one output to console, two to
   AG displays) although we hope to move to QID card, onboard
   audio (amazingly - no problems) interfaced through standard
   balanced-unbalanced convertor, Winnov Videum 4400 VO.

   Cheers

      Don,

         We use a rack mount case with the PC-DL Asus motherboard
      (5 PCI slots)
      for all three(now two) machines, linux and WXP.  So far this
      motherboard
      has worked great for us.  A local retailer builds the machines for us.

         Thank you for that information Stuart.
           We are planning to purchase new computers and video capture to
         replace our aging AG1.x system. In several posts on this Tech
         group I have asked if there is a known to work hardware
         solution. While I don't nind a challenge it took us almost
         two years getting Dell to write newer BIOS before the 4 Hauppage
         cards would work together. We had to abandon Dell for our
         Display computer. So we wound up with more expenditure than
         should have been required.
            Please anyone chime in and contribute their recommendations
         for a full AG2.x functioning system. We don't require a turnkey
         solution.

         Thanks,
         Don Lewis

         Dear All,

         I'm pleased to report that I finally have 4 working osprey


      cards under


         FC2.....

         I still have to manually change the input to s-video for each card on
         changing venues, I've not tried to resolve this yet.

         I'm hoping to carry out tests on Monday, probably starting around 9am
         GMT if anyone is around please let me know your assistance will be
         greatly appreciated.

         Regards

         Stuart
