Overlay Surface & Movie Maker(To PapaJohn)

[Guest]

Did Movie Maker work in display mode "Primary Surface" Or need "Overlay surface to work ??

My problem is the following: I have a capture card who work either in the both display modes "Primary and Overlay surface"and was working perfectly in Overlay. Recently I was obliged to change my motherboard and have now as VGA Card the S3 GRAPHIC PRO SAVAGE DDR Built in. I can no more configure my capture card to work in Overlay surface mode I receive black screen Preview .And I have problem to preview in recording mode using the Tv tuner of my capture card in Movie Maker .By the way if I go recording from my Webcam in Movie Maker it works well and preview is ok.

-Operation System Windows XP Profesional
-Memory Ram 512 Mb
-Processor AMD Athlon,MMX,3D, 1.3 Ghz
-DirectX 9
-VGA Card S3 Graphic Pro Savage DDR-32 Mb
-Capture Card "KWORLD" TV Tuner & Video Capture Card

Thank you in advance for your help.

Is this built in graphics? In which case could you disable it and fit your
old card?
Try searching for any updated drivers for the built in graphics.
