GeneralClaymore · Sep 5, 2005, 03:38 AM

what do i use to use the vivo part. pny site doesnt say it has vivo, but in fact it does. i had to install the wdm drivers for the vivo part of the card, the cd came with the drivers.

i have the breakout box that has the HDTV/Video out/Svideo out/Svidoeo in and Video in on it that came with the card.

at newegg.com it shows it as Vivo also. it didnt come with the software to use the vivo part of it. so i wondering what software do i use to use Vivo.

what exactly are you trying to do....put the image on a TV, or stream in video to the PC?

stream video to the pc

You will need to install NVIDIA's WDM drivers to start off. They are not WHQL which I found disappointing. My 7800GT's VIVO doesn't work too well either, since I'm getting some green line going across the top edge of the screen. No matter what kind of program I'm using to record/view the incoming signal there's always a green bar.

I have 4 dongles so, I know it's not a cable problem.

P.S - Your PNY card should have software which you can use to view incoming signal.

i look on the cd but i didnt see any software to view incoming signals , what would i look for ?

Any piece of software. The manual should also mention it. If you cannot find it (which I doubt, if it's a retail card), you can try using DScaler or ChrisTV. (I recommend DScaler).

I recommend taking a look through the manual, it should mention it. I looked through mine and there lay a small blurb on how to get my VIVO working.

the manual does mention the vivo drivers. but the software wasnt on the cd. i got it at compusa. i'll give dscaler a try, thx for the help

Take a look at the PNY site for some info as well. Some of these manufacturers like to skimp out on the hard copy of manuals, but do provide a full fledged version online
