Saturday's party was more entertaining than expected, but I still left relatively early as planned.
Sunday was mostly spent trying to get tv/video capture cards to work. My new one causes a DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL bluescreen whenever a program tries to use it. Windows being windows I can't manually change the IRQ assignment (although I have learnt how to enable that feature - during the next reinstall). Latest drivers don't help. I'm at a bit of a loss, particularly given that according to the box this card was "designed for Windows XP".
Sunday gaming we were down a player which was a bit unfortunate. The PCs charged into a situation which might be a bit much for them. I got to have fun with a spellcaster, a couple of heavy hitters and lots of mooks. We had to break the session mid-combat, and we're now on a two-week break for the Xmas/NY period.
