I'm running Windows XP on an Athlon T-bird 1.2GHz, EPoX 8KHA+, 512MB PC2100 DDR.
It's a triple-display system: AGP All-In-Wonder 128 Pro (16MB), then PCI Voodoo3 3000 and Viper V550 (both 16MB). I'm running MultiMedia Center 7.1.

My problem is this: when I'm watching TV, or specifically, when I am on composite input, the video from the source is noticeably delayed, by about half a second (VERY frustrating when playing Super Nintendo). There are obviously many variables to try messing with, but has anyone experienced and solved this problem? I bought this card because my TV Wonder VE wasn't giving me an adequate framerate.

Yes to the 4 in 1s, and yes to the latest ATI drivers. For the Viper and the Voodoo, I'm just using the default drivers XP installed upon detecting them. I don't think these are the problem, because even with displays #2 and 3 disabled, the video is still out of sync.

I have downloaded and installed MultiMedia Center 7.2, but for some reason the TV is still Version 7.1.

Update: not sure how, but I seem to have fixed the problem. I was messing around with specifying which graphics adapter was primary, and when I cycled back to the AIW, finally the video worked right. Not sure why this made a difference but since it did, I'm not complaining.
