unsure.gif hi everyone.i just built my htpc. iam using an ati tv pro,a bfg geforce 6200 oc.my mobo is a gigabyte k8 triton with amd athlon 64 3000+.i am running a gig of ram ddr400. i have been reading posts and i believe my agp card does hardware mpeg. i start the tv capture and the processor usage shoots up to 100%. i read on another post his cpu only runs around 30% on an amd sempron 754. my cpu is a socket 939. i tried to find tuning options in the ati multimedia application to no avail. my os is xp home. i am still very new to the hotrod pc world and i am very unsure were to change settings and whatnot. i did make sure that my lcd refresh rate and resolution and colerdepth all matched with the settings on the video card. the captured video looks choppy and i am now at a loss on how to go about setting this pc up. thanks for any help you may offer.

edit ok, this is crazy! running on the vga out to flat panel the cpu drops to 18%
running the pj on the dvi out and in dual display maxes out cpu.running on dvi out in single mode maxes out cpu. what have i done? this card supports dual displays and i am still having trouble. wink.gif
