Yea, so I bought this Leadtek WinFast video capture card/tv tuner so I could play the N64/PS2 on my computer, it worked fine.

Then I get this GeForce FX 6600 GT, also made by Leadtek, and the two just won't work together.

If I have the Video Capture card plugged in, the video card doesn't work. It says

This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)

If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.

So what do you think could be the problem? I got the Capture card in PCI slot 5, sound card in slot 3, and the gfx card in the AGP slot.

If I try putting the capture card in another PCI slot it doesn't recognise it's there.

I've tried updating drivers for both the video and capture card and it didn't work.

So anyone got any ideas? I really don't have clue what to do.

Thanks.

Its not that, its just that your puter is pissed at you for quitting folding

Yea I do need to run folding more. I usually turn it off when I play games and forget to turn it back on.

here we go, there it's turned on now... not much else I can do at 640x480 with 8bit colors and no gfx card anyways...


btw n64 still kicks as.

slot 5?

Is this the next slot down from the AGP slot?

IF SO this is a shared slot with the AGP slot move it and reinstall drivers

|==(AGP)==|

|==(Empty)==| (PCI SLOT when AGP CARD is not present)
|==(Tuner)==|
|==(Empty)==|
|==(Empty)==|
|==(Audio)==|

Other question, you mention video and 8bit blah blah was this capture card also a video card for your system. if so go into your bios and set agp as primary card

Bubba, I have the exact card he's talking about. There is no VGA output on it. The only output it has is audio, which runs straight to the line-in port of your sound card.

Sage: Are your motherboard drivers up-to-date? Look in Device Manager and look for any unknown devices.

actually it's like

|==(AGP)==|

|==(Empty)==| (PCI SLOT when AGP CARD is not present)
|==(Empty)==|
|==(Audio)==|
|==(Empty)==|
|==(Tuner)==|
|==(Empty)==|

And no, the capture card wasn't ever my video card. Before this 6600 I had a GeForce 4 made by some other company, and it worked fine.

I checked in the bios and my primary video card is set to agp.

Maybe it has something to do with IRQ conflict or something? I'll try some more stuff.

actually I made a mistake. I don't have 6 PCI slots I have 5. so it's really like:

|==(AGP)==|

|==(Empty)==|
|==(Audio)==|
|==(Empty)==|
|==(Empty)==|
|==(Tuner)==| (I swapped it from slot 4 to 5)

I think the computer is thinking the capture card is the primary video card or something.

It is very likely the last PCI slot does not support PCI busmaster and the capture card needs busmaster support. Try one of the other slots, look in your mobo manual to find out which slots share which IRQs.

It could also be that it's sharing an IRQ with PCI slot 1 (and therefore the AGP) since PCI uses a round-robin system for assigning IRQs to slots (A, B, C, D and then back to A again and so on). I'd suggest moving it up one but you mention you've already tried that. I can't think of any reason why moving it would cause the motherboard to cease recognising it myself

Check to see if Plug-n-Pray OS is set to yes.
