doug Posted November 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Thanks mark. I was really looking for something to test out my existing setup. I did have a CD sometime back which checked out the existing system and reported what was compatible etc. I've lost it and having carried out many mods, since then, do I have any remaining probs. e.g. I'm pretty sure my Black Widow scanner is a problem. Perhaps I aught to go for dual boot just for this and anyother remaining problems. Also the test software reported which applications had a problem. I've tried looking at the M4 site without luck. :huh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

doug Posted November 7, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2003 Again, thanks for those links. They have raised queries about the following items on my system. My NVIDIA Geforce Ti 4200 Video card; My Cannon Digital IXUS v Camera; My ADSL Modem; My hp DJ 960c printer and my C-media AC97 Audio device, as well as Age of Emoires II; IntelliPoint (mouse?); AVG antivirus and DVD player. Didn't mention the scanner though. Well will now have to check out later versions of the above.I do hope our Nel kept a decent diary of her experiences :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
