Hi!

I have some trouble to get my tuner work with Media Center in Vista, does
anyone have some idea of what is going wrong?

I can scan for channels, no problem with the guide or setup but there is
never any picture in the live tv only black screen followed by "no signal".
If I move the tuner to an XP (without MC) then there is no problem with the
signal. Can this be caused by the tuner driver, I get no reports of any
driver problems? There seem to be no more recent driver to use from Windows
Update.

TIA

/Ted

Windows Vista Ultimate, activated
Dell Inspiron 6400, Intel T2400 1.83GHz
2GB RAM
ATI Mobility Radeon X1400
Twinhan Magicbox Pro, USB

More than likely your tuner driver, Ted. I had no end of trouble with my
tuner card even with a vista driver update specifically for it. In the end I
had to install the driver which my XP MCE uses and that solved it.

Good luck.
