After reading excellent reviews I decided to buy the MSI FX5600-VTDR128 video card - mainly for it`s capture capabilities. The package included WinProducer2/Wincoder.

I was very impressed with the quality of the capture, but recently whenever I try to capture using realtime MPEG (1 or 2) the program just crashes, AVI seems Ok. Even worse, when I try to use any other program that relys on MPEG2, it either refuses to start or just crashes too. I also installed DirectX9 and NERO 6 recently and I think the latter might be causing a conflict, I`ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling NERO but that doesn`t help.

My system is an Athlon xp 2400+ with 256 MB ram with a 120GB hd. Anyone else had similar problems?
