Well I got the picture part down, now able to take my screen shots and post them on the net or just email them for show, but I cant figure out how to get the videos to work. I know how to record them and find them in the G2 folder but how do I convert them from REC file to play in Windows Media player or Quicktime or any media player?
Thanks
Thanks

You can't. You have to run a seperate program like FRAPS that will record whatever you want. Next you have to edit the video file FRAPS spits out cause for like 2minutes of video the file sze would be over a gig. Next you have to have access to some webspace so that you can upload the new viddy and give out links.

Thanks for the help, that sounds a bit complicated but I would give it a try. I just wanted to be able to take the recordings and email them or watch them outside of G2. If you know how to do it all, and dont mind explaining that would be great. I also have web space to host stuff pictures, videos but I really wanted to just be able to view them outside of G2. If you have the time to explain it you can email me the directions [email protected].
Thanks again

Is there an alternative to FRAPS? I got plenty of processer speed and a good video card, but I'm still running windows 98. The only FRAPS that is compatible with 98 doesn't record sound.

Hey yeah I know what you mean, I finally figured out FRAPS and tried to record with it but it slowed things up so much it was almost impossible to fly or control anything. I guess we just wont be able to have that feature. Viewing them on the G2 is alright I guess, but it would have been cool to be able to save them on the desktop or something and maybe burn some CD'Rs and have them to watch. Oh well........ Thanks for all the help otherwise though guys.....
