As I posted then, Use XP SP1, do NOT use that OS or partition to access the Internet, No updates. Also "KILL" ATI HOTKEY POLLER" and "ATI SMART" under "services". I can still Capture what I like on my ATI AIW 9600 Pro to this day.Also, Use MPlayer to playback your TV Captures and rid yourself of as much ATI crap as necessary, Good Luck. I converted to Linux / Ubuntu about 6 months ago , unfortunately our AIW's are not supported by much of anything but XP SP1 and what works from ATI. Good LUck
Here's a technical explanation for those who are curious,
