Ati AIW 128 on Win XP - 03/25/07 05:17 PM

Hi!

I just found my old Ati AIW 128 Pci (All-in-wonder Rage 128?) card in a box.
Installed it as a secondary device where my first device is a nVidia 7600GS on a Windows XP Pro system.

Drivers for AIW installed ok. But no Capture device seems to be present. I have installed all different WDM tv-capture drivers but it just wound happen.
Also installed MMC 7.7.0.0 and there was an error when starting up Tv program, something about no device found.

Any ideas?

That is an older GPU, the Rage 128 chipset.

Have you tried to download the latest drivers for that GPU yet from ATi ???

See if there are later versions of the base driver set, the wdm drivers and for the MMC apps.

Since it's a full Video Card along with a TV Tuner, then try removing your nVidia graphics card for testing purposes to verify that it is not somehow interfering with the ATi drivers.

You will need to uninstall the nVidia drivers and reboot the machine to test this as well.

I have owned one of these cards. It has to be the primary card for it to work properly. So, remove your Nvidea card to get full functionality.

If that's the case then you may need to get a seperate PCI TV Tuner card instead.
