Re: Open Broadcast Software

Matt, Thanks for the ideas.
Brian, That link made progress. the software is installed now and I can
load it. But it tells me my device is not connected or powered.... which is
scary since it is plugged into the PCIe slot..... Do you have some time to
possibly meet me where this machine is located and help me more directly?
perhaps sunday afternoon or so. If you're interested, let me know. I am
certainly appreciative of the remote help.
