well what about us that cant make it to meetings?

its nice that he spoke to you about it, it still doesnt explain to me where
my nokia card is or if this new card even works in winxp

just cous it works in 2k doesnt mean it works in xp

i have 2 videocapturcareds that are 100% not able to work in winxp

we have tryed 2k drivers and no luck

i want 2 make sure this card will work under xp and i want 2 know when i
will get it and when paul will bother to contact me about this change

what about all teh people who are buying who arnt on the group
