Since the Vidcap application is freezing and greyed out there appears to be a resource conflict on the system. We would recommend you begin by simply moving the card to a different PCI slot to see if this resolves this issue. If you continue to have the problem we would recommend checking the Manufacturer website to see if there is a new Bios revision available. If you continue to have the same problem please e-mail me at [email protected] and I will send you a utility that will enumerate the PCI devices on the system and tell which resources are assigned to which device. Hopefully with this info it will show that the Osprey device is sharing an interrupt with another device.

Hello,

My Osprey 100 is about 3 years old but it runs fine in a Pentium III, 700 Mhz machine with Windows 2000. I am trying to use it with a new AMD Athalon 1800 Mhz Pentium IV with Windows 2000, Service Pack 3. On this machine, with the bios set to normal settings, the vidcap32 application opens but is completely frozen and all gray. However, the Osprey will run on this motherboard if I use a clean Windows 2000 load (no service packs) and set the bios to run with failsafe defaults (i.e.: non-optimal settings). In this mode, the board locks up somewhere through the recording session, usually after 20 to 40 minutes of continuous recording.

I am using the Windows 2000 drivers which I just downloaded from your driver page.

The Osprey card has this data on it:

Sticker with MM91203485

Chip is BT848AKPF, video decoder, BH 8937.3 9905, Korea

On the mounting bracket, there is a barcode with 653356 on it.

The processor is an AMD Athalon MP 1800+, the board is running 500 meg of registered DDR memory and the disks are ATA 4 and ATA 5, 7200 rpm.

The motherboard is an MSI MS-6501 (v1.x) with an AMD-760 MPX chipset. This board has 64bit/66Mhz and 32bit/33 Mhz slots, the Osprey is plugged into a 32bit/33 Mhz slot.

 

Any clues will be appreciated.
