i'm thinking of replacing my millennium II (4 MB) with a
marvel G200 TV (8 MB).  i also have a canopus pure3D (6 MB).
has anyone heard of any problems when using the marvel with
a standalone 3D card?  since the marvel supposedly has
2D/3D capabilities are there any problems when games have
to figure out which card gets used for the 3D rendering?
i.e. how do i make sure the canopus still gets used for
all the directx/direct3D stuff?

also, i just read one post from a guy who couldn't get his
marvel to work with the asus p2b, which happens to be the
MB i have.  has there been a solution for that?  are there
other people on there with this same setup that have been
successful with the combination?

thanks,
chris
