I have just built a new system and it went really well except I have no
picture when I use the TV tuner of my Radeon 7500. I don't think it is a
hardware issue since it supplies images for channel surf.

My System:
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-7VT600-L
CPU: Athlon 2600+
RAM: 512 DDR400
OS: Windows XP Home SP1

I have the CD that came with the board and has MMC version 8.1.

I tried to upgrade the whole catalyst package to version 8.8, but I could
not get back into XP after I installed it and I wound up using the system
restore. So, I am back where I started.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
Bob Young

I have precisely the same problem with my All-In-Wonder 8500. This problem
only started once I installed a later version of DirectX (9, I think). In
addition to the channel-surf feature working fine, I can usually get a
picture from a channel for half a second, before reverting to a black
screen.

Previous to the DirectX upgrade, things were working fine.

Apparently, ATI & Microsoft are aware of the problem, and have made a patch
available for download.

Running DirectX 9.0b, Catalyst 3.10, with the patch applied.

Patch doesn't work for me, though...still have same problem.

Same problem with ATI AIW 9000, DX9b, mmc 8.8,.... patch doesn't work.
:-(((, this 'hotfix' is only to show "ATI WDM Tv Tuner" under winxp hardware
device menu.
Does anyone know how we can contact ATI support?
