Fakes made in China
The cards are fakes and made in china. The software supplied only works with Win98 and screws up Audio in WinXP ...Yikes I did find the download for Pico2000 Win2000/WinXP which is from the original manufactures site. They are aware that this is going on and are trying to help those that got duped, but there is a cost 40.00 ...Makes me sick that I have to pay more. Thinking I may just trash this one and buy a different one. Geo looks good. I would probably have stuck with this card and paid the 40.00 but the site says if you upgrade your computer or move the card to another computer the Key they give you is tracked and will not work anymore..grrrr Anyhow, Im done venting and Thank You again for the speedy reply. Sincerely, Brandie
The Pirated DVR Cards
With most of the pirated DVR Cards, features that are advertised no longer function, remote viewing does not work, and even causes system failures in windows.
- Avoid systems that are coming directly from China (Often these cards are sold for $0.99 - $40.00 on Ebay and other venues
- Ask for the version and Brand of the software - Most companies selling you pirated cards will not list the actual brand of the software, or list the software as FREE
Brands to watch out for:
- PICO 2000
- DICO
- Peaqe
- GeoVision (There are some real cards - but you will need to check with actual Manufacturer for correct license numbers/card designs)
- AnyKeeper
- Magic Radar
Look at the picture...When the picture for the card shows a blank recordable CD-R - The software is obviously pirated...run the other way!
Look at the price - Due to the volumes in the Surveillance Industry, a Legitimate DVR Card and software is NEVER $0.99 - $40.00! That does not even cover the cost of good DVR Card hardware, let alone the development time for the software! Cheaper is not better!
