Ok, GV600-4

Just tested it in my PC, which has a Via Chipset where the GV250 and an Iview card worked fine before, but the Gv600 will not work, drivers would not even install.

Installed same card in an HP Desktop and a Dell Desktop, both had Intel Chipsets, Both refurbished from Tiger Direct, both 2.8 P4s, and both worked without problems. Tested with Geo 7.1 and 8.01. 7.1 was much faster overall and also seemed like the quality was a little better.

I have a Geo 1480 running great on a Gigabyte GA-P35 with 2 gigs or ram and an Intel 2.2 Ghz Core 2 Duo with a Asus EAH 3450 Radeon video card.

Everything installed fine and seems to be working great.

Also this system was not very expensive and runs cool and stable.

This was supposed to be a Geovision Tested System but all it does is crash over and over, claiming memory failures that do not appear when the RAM is tested on a different motherboard, or when the Geovision software is not running.


Motherboard: DFI P35-T2RL (Blood Iron series)
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
VGA: ASUS X2600XT 256meg DDR4
Memory: Crucial Ballistix 800mhx DDR2, 2 x 1 gig, since I could not find this "Apcer" company they list for memory
Geovision: 2 x GV2008
Geovision software version: 8.2
OS: Windows XP SP3 with all available updates
Case: Supermicro rackmount with 800 watt server power supply


The motherboard is basically an Overclocker's dream come true, with utterly bizarre clocking controls in the BIOS that practically require an electrical engineer to understand, and in some cases do not offer a "default" configuration choice so I've no way of knowing how it should be set.

"BIOS Failsafe" mode still fails. Underclocking the CPU for stability reasons still fails. Hooking up the Geovision auto-reset-button function still fails, because the motherboard frequently hangs in a state of a high pitched shrieking where even reset does not function and the only option is a forced held-power-button powerdown.

It is totally confusing. I ran the motherboard for a straight week running the MemTest86 boot CD, but the system bombs into a hard shrieking hang after only a few days of running 16 camera monitoring.


The motherboard is a pile of junk as far as I can determine but I built it following Geovision's tested systems specifications.

Boy this has sure given me confidence in Geovision's own system testing methods. Rolling Eyes

Geovision's tech support people claim they don't have time to test their video hardware in mainstream servers from the likes of Dell or IBM or Sun, but somehow they have time to test out a totally oddball motherboard that only a hardware hacking overclocker could possibly care about. Please explain this, will you Geovision?

Oh, and I must say, this "Blood Iron" board sounds like a real professional system for use in a school, oh yeah.. Razz

Well, I tried putting a GV2008 into a Dell PowerEdge 2900.

It cannot be done, due to the GV2008 being a 5-volt 32-bit PCI card, and the PowerEdge having a 3.3v 64-bit slot. The slot keying prevents this from working at all.

From Wikipedia:


Oh well, at least the Dell PE2900 server is off the list of possible options for the GV2008 anyway. Crying or Very sad

MSI motherboard G31M3. This motherboard disables the video once you install a GV-1480 card. I tried the follwoing workarounds with no success.

1) added a PCIx video card and set the default video in the bios to PCIe
2) selected the onboard video as the default video
3) updated the bios to the most current version

no matter what I tried, everytime I put the GV-1480 in, the MSI saw it as a display card not a video capture.

So, I got an intel D31PR mobo. I didnt even have to re-install windows as they both have the same chipset. Worked like a charm
