General Problems
The computer will not initialize (boot) or finish starting up after the TARGA 3000
card is installed.
— This problem may be due to a conflict in the PCI bus parity between the TARGA
card and the computer. The solution is to remove the TARGA card and then start the
computer, and while the computer is initializing enter the advanced section of the
BIOS program and disable PCI Parity Checking.
— Take out the TARGA 3000 card and try to boot. If the computer still will not boot,
check that the processor card and all other cards are securely in place, and that all
connections are good.
The TARGA 3000 card, Adobe Premiere, and/or your overall system does not seem
to work properly.
— Make sure you select TARGA 3000 as the editing mode when entering Adobe
Premiere. This is required to correctly load the plug-ins. If you select Quicktime or
Video For Windows, the TARGA 3000 will not work and in some circumstances the
system can become unstable.
