Not necessarily -bad- advice, but limited in that it did not distinguish

I'm running a Via Sp13000 with the newest chipset and... no problem.
More info on chipsets at Via's websites.
So the original question can only be answered when we know exactly which
chipset is on the board.
Which was cut out of the quote in my reply.
Going full circle, once again (short version):
OP (rwinburne), "I have a KT266 board. Will it work with a PVR-x50?"
Reply 1 (David), "Don't use Via. It's not worth the trouble."
Reply 2 (Peter), "I use Via and it works great on my KM400, so any
fairly new mobo should work."
Reply 3 (me), "KM-400 is new, KT266 is not and KT-266 is explicitly
listed as not working."
Reply 4 (Peter), "I guess this [Peter's advice] was bad advice."
Reply 5 (
Geoff
), see above

Well, as always there are folks who know more than I. :) Sounds like this

KM400 is new. KT266 is not--regardless of when it was made.
KT266 is explicitly listed on the ivtvdriver.org site as bad.
