WTF how did you find that vi ? Looks pretty good for Jonny. ;)
edit: Dang searched my @ss off on dial up but the only thing I could find was the suncrown website in TAIWANESE. Very informative.

<< WTF how did you find that vi >>



I was the &quot;web search wizard&quot; in college :) It's just a matter of knowing what keywords to pop into the search box.

I'm waiting for Jonny to jump in here and give you the praise you deserve. :D Just curious what exactly DID you pop in in this particular case ?

I first tried &quot;FB MT-2099 and driver&quot;

No hits.

Then tried &quot;MT-2099 and driver&quot;. BAM! Scored a hit.

vi_edit: okay, next challenge. Figure out how to enable the MP3 recording capabilities of a VoodooTV 200, supposedly you just go to 3dfx's website and register the card. But the page doesn't exist and even 3dfx's support won't help me :(

Closest I've found is the app where you put your name and registration password into. But w/o a registration password I'm still stuck. Maybe I need to get the help of some 1337 d00dZ. :)

Ahh vi_edit beat me to the punch :D. Yep, that was a tough one and I think I tried everything except what vi did. I just happened to catch a link on a Linux modem compatibility kb that led to em. I see, I left out the '-'. Amazing what changing a few characters will do :)

Viper: yeah, it's a damn good card with excellent output. Too bad like when I got my STB V4400 and my Diamond V770 the companies got killed.

I'm wondering if I should stop buying retail HW, every time I do the company dies. (we'll see if Matrox is around in 3 mos)

If we could keep looking, I'd like to find a US FTP (I'm getting pushy, I know).

You see, the modem supports supports FCC,CTR21 and JATE standards and I have a EUROPEAN driver (CTR21?), but apparently it doesn't work here in the states and I imagine this is a DRIVER issue and not a MODEM issue. It actually dials different tones and too many digits, despite how Windows is set up. :(

I'll try vi's link, but it looks like the same driver I already have and it doesn't work. :( :( :(

Just wanted to let you all know that those drivers did the trick! The modems work fine now!

Always new I could count on my Anandtech buddies! ;)
