This is one way the check how much VRAM you have. - It should display on just the TV with 2MB, it doesen't. on 2/11/01 7:06 pm, Ronald Romine at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > Under Apple Video Player's WINDOWS menu, select the Show WINDOWS > control option.

I am becoming mildly exasperated at this stage still no video input. There is a DAV socket on the logic board with nothing in it, should there be? I have tried an s.video cable now too, through both built in AV module and mystery pci card with s.video input, still nothing. Any more input welcomed, especially video!!!
