danny, I had a same type of problem, i carried a series of R&D, you may first try a true S-VHS output to be connected to the card's input. If that does't do it try the bios options for USB type support 1.1 or higher. If that also did't work either increase the shared onboard video RAM size or best is to add up a AGP card for the test. If possible go for Win2k or XPsp1 with directx 9 or higher installed.
