Right, last night I did the following:

Shutdown & removed the WinTV card,

Removed the Matrox Millennium to check the model number & set the BIOS
update switch to allow flashing,

Restarted & run Hauppage's HCWCLEAR utility and selected the remove
everything option,

Booted to DOS & flashed the Matrox Millenniums BIOS to the latest
available
>from

Booted into W2K & installed the latest available version of Matrox's
drivers
& powerdesk utilities,

Reinstalled the WinTV card, and when detected allowed it to install the VFW
drivers from the Happuage CD.

Reinstalled the application suite from the Hauppage CD (WinTV200, etc..)

....Running WinTV2000 or WinTV32 now results in a total lock-up of the
machine...

Re-run the HCWCLEAR tool to remove everything, and the installed the latest
WDM drivers from the Hauppage website, reinstalled the applications
again...

.... Running WinTV2000 or 32 now gives the same errors as before
"Connecting
to overlay mixer Input Pin..." followed by "Can not run preview
graph"...
Following which the application actually runs, but the TV window is black.

This is with the Primary setting to "Allow Overlay", if I set it
to "DIB
Draw" I'm back to the complete lock-up state again...

I give up! Time to get a new Graphics card in there....

Paul G.
