I had horrific results from an adaptec only a month ago. I don't blame adaptec, I blame the cruddy MS codec. I was using a $3000 sony camcorder at the timeYou can not blame Adaptec even if you wanted too. Are you sure you are using MS's codec? Windows comes with other codecs as well, particularly Indeo's codec pack. And have you upgraded them? In another thread you mention you use Win98SE (which could be your problem as well). How about your hard drive.... you need a fast 7200 RPM drive to capture. Also, what version of Direct X do you use... I believe you'll need at least 8.1b, which solves some video capture problems.
Finally, if you are working with uncompressed AVI, well then, it uses no CODEC
One should do their homework before one points the finger of blame.
