Video Capture: Compatibility with DOS & Other Operating Systems
Contents:
DOS COMPATIBILITY
DOS 5.0 or higher is required for the DOS Intel Smart Video Recorder
Installation Program.
The Intel Smart Video Recorder does NOT use any DOS device drivers or
terminate-and-stay resident software (TSR). All Intel Smart Video
Recorder Drivers are Windows 3.1 drivers.
The following table provides a list of DOS versions and their
compatibility with the Intel Smart Video Recorder.
DOS Version Compatibility Status
MS/PC-DOS 2.x, 3.x and 4.x Incompatible
MS/PC-DOS 5.0 Compatible
MS-DOS 6.0 Compatible
DR-DOS 6.0 Conditionally Compatible
MS/PC-DOS 2.x, 3.x and 4.x
Microsoft (MS) & PC-DOS 2.x, 3.x and 4.x are incompatible with the
Intel Smart Video Recorder. DOS 5.0 or higher is required by the
DOS Intel Smart Video Recorder Installation Program, all previous
version are incompatible.
DR-DOS 6.0
DR-DOS is conditionally compatible with the Intel Smart Video
Recorder.
DR-DOS 6.0 reports a DOS v3.31 to any DOS application that checks
the DOS version. The Intel Smart Video Recorder INSTALL.EXE
program checks for the DOS version and requires MS-DOS 5.0 or
higher to install. Once you are in Windows, however, the Intel
Smart Video Recorder and DR-DOS 6.0 appear to be compatible.
NETWORK SOFTWARE - GENERAL NOTES
The Intel Smart Video Recorder and the Indeo video technology drivers
have shown no problems during compatibility testing to date.
NOVELL NETWARE
Novell makes LAN software which works with several different types of
network hardware. Novell NetWare is compatible with the Intel Smart
Video Recorder with the following exception:
The Intel Smart Video Recorder will not work in a machine used as a
dedicated file server. The Intel Smart Video Recorder must be installed
in a workstation on the network and cannot be shared. The Intel Smart
Video Recorder can be installed in a non-dedicated file-server (using
machine as both fileserver and workstation).
Note: I/O address or interrupt conflicts between network hardware,
the Intel Smart Video Recorder, and other boards may occur. For
information on troubleshooting hardware conflicts see document 8062.
OS/2 V 2.0
OS/2 v2.0 is not compatible with the Intel Smart Video Recorder because
it emulates Windows 3.0. The Windows drivers for the Intel Smart Video
Recorder require Microsoft Windows v3.1 or higher.
OS/2 V 2.1
CUSTOMER REPORT
Customers have reported that OS/2 v2.1 is compatible with the Intel
