Hi, I read the AIW thread with all the driver links. Very interesting.
I have an AIW 9600 AGP with all the original stuff that I want to use for analog video capture. I got a freebie computer with a messy install of XP and no installer disk to match what looks like an upgrade license code. I tried to clean it up and install the AIW drivers. Everything works except the capture drivers, of which there seem to be five. Three show yellow flags in Device Manager. I have tried uninstalling, deleting ATI files, purging the registry, removing drivers in safe mode, all to no avail.
I have a couple of options. I could swap in a board/CPU combo, actually a somewhat better package, for which I have the XP/SP2 OEM installer disk.
Option 2 would be to reformat the hdd in the existing machine and install Windows 2000, following a process I found here:

I would modify this process by installing the AGP and ATI drivers after I have .NET and DirectX 9 squared away.
I'm interested in opinions. Which is a better option? Or is there something I can do with the current setup that I have overlooked?
