It doesn't help matters that (at least last time I checked), David keeps including an ancient version of the software.
True!
I certainly do what I can when I get email from people who have trouble with their Eclipse cards, but without direct access to the hardware there are, unfortunately, limits to what can reasonably be done to figure out what the problem is.
Sometimes direct access to hardware doesn't help. David Encill looks at my card from Easter without any effects. I could look in this way on my card at home.
Bad connections and/or power-supply are two possibilities, but it could of course be the actual Eclipse hardware, or the graphics card itself for that matter.
So what's the matter when pci bios reports bad device & vendor id?(i hope you remember me). Someone told me(the guy behind Tempest) that he discovered some bugs in Eclipse.
> I hope that you sent back your card registered post and can prove that they received it.....
Too late :/
Also, I would suggest not sending anything back until you have verified that the vendor is OK with this and how you do it.
What does it mean OK?
Of course, it is seldom possible for anyone except the people actually involved to know what _really_ happened (and it _is_ certainly possible that things get lost in the mail, or for that matter are just plain forgotten/misplaced)), but...
Not this amount of mail. I receive no reply, or David Encill states that he was/is very ill and couldn't answer. Too long for me.
