Targa Boards

There was a discussion a while ago about digitizing photos and how it would be neat to use the early technology to do so. I have the Targa 16 and Targa 24 video capture boards and figured it was worth a try and am just starting to try and set them up. The three boards I have are all circa 1985. The Targa 16 supports composite video so I will try that first. They came with some software called TIPS that apparently allows this to be done. Only problem is an unreadable Disk 2. I am going to try and see if a 360K drive will read it any better. I also have Pizazz Plus that supports the Targa boards but I don't see support for saving the files to a standard TIF file. Has anyone used the Targa boards and and can this be done without having to write specialized software? Also, has anyone used the TIPS software? Thanks.
