onboard video with a DVD burner ?

[NicholasA]

My system:
Asus A7n266-vm (onboard Nvidea geforce2)
Athlon 17700+, 512 meg PC2100 ram, 80 gig drive
Pioneer 104 DVD r/rw (cendyne)

The box for the DVD burner states under system requirements:
"PCI and onboard AGP not supported"

Anyone have expeiance with this, will I have problems burning with this system?

Thanks,
Nick

I have onboard 16 mb video on my HP desktop, but i just installed a DVR-105, and didn't have a problem installing or burning one DVD-R so far

i think they may be talking about the devices for capturing video for burning.


the DVD drive it'self uses the IDE bus.

What they mean is that they don't support on-board graphics. In other word, your computer needs an actual video card installed, whether it's PCI or AGP.

You can always try to see if it works. Cendyne may just be concerned about older onboard graphics, which tend to be low-end. Or perhaps the drive really does benefit from an actual video card.
