We've swapped video cards a few times in Raptor-Premiere
computers with disasterous results - cured by dumping
Raptor-Premiere software and video drivers, reloading
video drivers, then Raptor and Premiere. (Finally got
the Matrox G-400 working properly with latest drivers
and a R-P software reload.) Maybe much of the trouble
people have with Premiere can be traced to video-card
and driver switches?
