AIW 8500 USB receiver problem

Rosebud6 · Mar 21, 2003, 11:16 PM

Have lost my original disk and have been looking for a driver for the USB receiver. Installed the Omega drivers (nice job on the driver by the way) but can not get the receiver to install. Since ATI's website is such a pain in the a$$ and they want you to pay for all their support, can anyone point me in the right direction to get a replacement cd or a place to get the driver for the USB receiver?
Thanks in advance.

You can easily get one at www.ati.com
Go find driver and then search for your AIW 8500 and there should be a list called "optional drivers or software"

I can even send you my USB remote driver, I have a AIW myself but its a 7500.

Guess I jumped the gun a little, didn't see the link.
Thanks NoSoul25

Another problem i have been having is capturing from a VCR. Been told that it has to do with Marcovision, downloaded something that "disabled" Macrovision but to the same result, Any tips, suggestions or online support?

I'm not too sure but I think that the Omega Drivers http://www.omegacorner.com/ disable macrovision by default. Here the ati link i forgot to post, notice that there two updates , might have to install the first one than the update. Anyway, you can alway post back if you have a problem.

These work fine for me.

This card is a straight of the shelf 128 meg AIW 8500. bought it, put it in, tried the capture feature, got mad cause ATI says it's a problem that has nothing to do with their card but with the units that I was using to capture from.
