| 306445 | 2004-12-21 16:19:00 | I have an ATI All-IN-Wonder 9600 pro video card. When I run the test that came with the card, I get an error message "Clock stability <+/- 0.2%". I have an on-board Realtek A'97 Audio card. The test recommendation is to ensure that I have the latest drivers for my audio card, which I have done. If I am still experiencing problems, they say to try a different audio card. I have tried a number of different cards to no avail. I wonder if anyone else has had the same problem and how he or she solved it. | navcom (6645) | ||
| 306446 | 2004-12-21 21:35:00 | While it's a warning that synch of sound and video may not be perfect, are you saying that it actually causes a problem? I would suspect that it's unlikely to be an issue in actual use. Perhaps the only issue is the way the test reports the stability? |

| 306450 | 2004-12-21 23:26:00 | Are you overclocking? Do you have "spread spectrum" enabled (look in BIOS under "Frequency/Voltage control"? I have no idea how relevant these two things could be, but they sure have a lot to do with your clock... |

| 306451 | 2005-01-01 19:36:00 | I have spent most of Christmas looking at this problem. I am guessing it relates to XP SP2 or some other MS update. I solved it by de-installing everthing from ATI and loading the newest (MM9.0.3 etc). I did try the latest sound driver but that made things worse so stick to the ATI stuff. Follow the installation instructions , the only difference is I used Media player 10. I am now seeing my videos's in black and white, something to do with macrovision I assume, but the sound does not go all crackly after 30 seconds watching. Not sure of your exact setup but I had to set the sound input to AUX to get the video recorder to record sound. I have now recorded a DIVX movie with sound which I am very happy about.

| 306452 | 2005-01-02 13:54:00 | Worked out the colour as well. Just needed to adust the uhf frequency at the back of the video recorder a little bit. Copy protected video's still look rubbish though. |

| 306453 | 2005-01-05 08:57:00 | Peter, Please explain what is MM9.0.3? What exactly did you have to do to correct the problem? Thanks! |

| 306454 | 2005-01-06 07:14:00 | Hopefully this link will get you there. MMC is multimedia center. www.ati.com The first time I tried it it didn't work but then I read the instructions properly and followed them closely and then it worked. Uninstalling all the old stuff seemed to be important. I did have the problem come back but I found after doing a full hard reboot of the machine it went away again. The previous night I had been able to record over 3 hours of TV without any sound problems. It may be because I use the suspend mode rather than completely rebooting the machine usually. |
