I would add to the whole pathpilot video question
A looking at the Pathpilot PC shows it using integrated graphics. now it may not be Intel but it is integrated
you can see this in the pathpilot upgrade doc.

Ah! I found the following: TD10342_PathPilot_Upgrade_Kit_0415A.pdf

on Tormach's website. According to that, #1 in your clipped image is the motherboard's parallel port, which is not used with PathPilot, and #2 is the Mesa card's port.

But as you point out: they're clearly using the integrated graphics off the motherboard! Thanks!

This combo I am currently running PP on. This set-up has turned out wonderful for me and latency around 5-7.
I listed the components in my thread below. Hope you have fun getting everything going!

cncnoob1979 - thanks! It's good to see I'm on the right track. I see you used a 7i77 BOB - I"m planning on a 7i76, which obviously has some differences, but I may bug you with some questions when I get to that. Cheers!

7i76 is for Stepper based Machines , the 7I77 is the equivalent but for Servo's , they both use the same 5i25 interface as far as the PC is concerned.
