Posted by Steve on 9/8/2004, 2:36 pm Today I installed a replacement RT2000 card, but didnt connect the ribbon as first test , to see if Hard drive booted ok. It detected as new hardware and totally ignored the MVT installation, so I had no choice but to point it to all driver locations etc. Tried to play a Matrox old AVI file and media player came up amd failed to find what it needed to play the file. Next test connected the old ribbon to G400 Flex and this time the AVI file played but it was Via Media Player and not Matrox Player. Connected BOB for last test and after first boot it locked. Tried again and it booted ok but I keep getting the " Insert MVT disk " nag , so can anyone advise what to do, as everything the card needs is " already " there so why do I have to reinstall MVT ? I tried MVT install but because it detected a newer version, it bowed out. Expects or demands I uninstall first. I have my suspiscions that the Black box on the ribbon is in fact a dongle and has ID configured to the software installation, so alternative card will not work with preinstalled software from another card. Can anyone confirm this please as I have already spent four hours so far. Just need to know that all is ok and that the G400 and BOB are not damaged or the ribbon/dongle too. Need to capture and edit a wedding urgently. Any help would be most welcome. Steve

Hello, I had a perfectly working RT2000 3.1b setup Win98se ( and Ghosted ) drive. Recently my PSU blew and took out my PC and most things including my RT2000DV card. G400 works as a display only now on another PC.
