Capture card question!

[XBucklawX]

Hi All !

Just wondering if it would be ok to have both an ati all in wonder 9000 pro and an ati tv wonder pci both installed and running on the same computer. My graphics card is a nvidia and the fan is extremely noisy. I want to use the 9000 as a graphics card, because of my "macrovision" issue ! And use the ati tv wonder pci as the capture card!

thanks

I'll give it a shot.
Having two similar cards, the problem I see is the drivers interfering. If you had the cards, I would try it, but if you are looking at buying them, you may want to research further. You could check the ATI site to see if what drivers they use and if they have any FAQ's that might cover the subject. Also, why not change the Nvida fan to something quieter?

I have both the ati aiw 9000 pro and the ati tv wonder pci in my possession. But currently installed on my system i have the ati tv wonder pci and the nvidia geforce2 installed. I'd like to replace the noisy nvidia graphics card with my ati aiw 9000 pro, but use the ati tv wonder pci for capture because of my "macrovision" problem.
