Jim Thanks for the info well I've got the drives to map now, but when I open as6 it asking me to navigate to my fs9 folder ok I understand. So on the client pc I click on z:my mapped drive on the server then navigate to programfiles where fs9 is located , but I get access denied! I don't get it c: on the server is setup to share yet it won't allow me to access the necessary files to setup as6.Dave -

Jim I don't know what's going on when I try to map the network drive all I get is a popup saying ATTEMPTING TO CONNECT CLIENTNAMEHEREC.Then I get THE NETWORK PATH CLIENTNAMEHEREC COULD NOT BE FOUND. I've opened port 8002 for WideFs on both computers the client will map to the server , but the server will not map to the client. Dave -

Hi JimOn the FS9/WideServer PC, I open MS Windows Explorer and from the menu, choose Tools -> Map Network Drive -
So what's the truth? I've been reading the Level-D forums and people seem to be happy with mcp-pro yes there are issuse here and there but all in all the unit works. Dave

Hi Gary one more question right now I have two monitors attached to the video card one on the vga output and one on the dvi output. Question is if I plug this third monitor in the s-video jack will windows see this monitor as a third monitor or would it still see it as my second monitor? Hope this makes sense. Dave

Hi Gary Thanks for the info I will give it try and see what happens. I was thinking of using this 4 1/2" tft for the fmc hope it works. Dave

Question: Is the video coming out of the s-video plug on the back of my gf6600 ntsc format? The reason I ask is a friend has a 4 1/2"tft flat panel with ntsc input ,but I'm not quite sure if this will work or not.So far I hav'nt been able to find any info detailed enough to determine if this will work.

I know there's a patch they are working on but I hav'nt heard anything for a while now their all kind of quite about it.Maybe someone else knows. To answer your question the mcp-pro sort of works , but not very well from what I read. I'm still waiting for them to sort things out before I buy one it's been a long wait so far. Dave
