ah ok, nakabili ka na pala.

it could be many things to tell you the truth. the most common problem and the problem i initially encountered with mine before i figured it out is your windows config.

In this other forum I mod in, mention the name Hercules and one particular member replies with all the characters you can type in with the caps lock engaged on the number keys at the top row. Yes, his experience with Guillemot/Hercules has not been a good one.

If I were you, I'd use something more user friendly.

I think the main issue/problem with the hercules card is actually not hercules' fault. the firewire drivers/support on windows xp is really screwed up. when I figured out a workaround for my XP installation, the hercules worked great and issue free. :-)
