Not quite video card, but there's no section for CC's. Anyways trying to install two of these at work, and they came with no instructions. And I'd think "Oh yeah, just plug n play" but no luck there. It has a four pin port on the side of the card, and a 6pin one.

I have no clue what needs to be plugged into these. It also lists "dedicated Hard drive" under Mimimum System Requirements. Would the default C:/ be okay, or will I have to get a 2nd one, and where would it hook into? (The card or the mobo)

Thanks guys.'

-Edit-
The 4 pin is for power, I'd guess what normally goes to the floppy?

And the 6 pin says
"Internal IEEE 1394 port"

Which leaves me to the question: Where the hell does it plug in? They gave me a 6to4 pin converter, but where would the 4 pin go? (Unless it's for the camera on the outside)

Halp. :3

What do you need a pinnacle capture card for anyway?
