If the Startup column reads Automatic, and the Status
column is blank, the driver can be started by clicking the
Start button.
When the board fails to start under Windows 2000, the
❐
driver might not have started. Right-click on My
Computer, and select Manage from the presented menu.
From the Computer Management explorer window,
display the System Tools and then the Device Manager.
If you do not see a Matrox Meteor-II device under Matrox
Imaging Adapters, you will have to reinstall the driver.
If the above solution for your operating system does not work,
try the following.
The driver also might not start due to too much or
❐
insufficient allocation of DMA memory. To address this
problem, re-allocate DMA memory using the included
milconfig.exe utility.
There is a conflict in the BIOS Setup program. This
❐
problem generally occurs when there is a PCI memory
mapping error or when there is a PCI-IRQ routing error.
To resolve this problem with the PCI form factor, first try
to swap boards from one PCI slot to another; for the
PC/104-Plus, change the rotary switch settings. If the
problem still persists, try upgrading your BIOS.
If the above solution does not work, try the following to
determine if there is an IRQ conflict.
Under Windows NT, go to the Windows NT Diagnostics

property page (found under Start Programs
Administrative Tools (Common)). Under the Resources

Matrox frame grabber.
Under Windows 2000, right-click on My Computer, and
❐
select Manage from the presented menu. From the
Computer Management explorer window, display the
System Tools\ System Information\ Hardware
Resources\ IRQs folder. Check for devices that are sharing
an IRQ with your Matrox frame grabber.
