Hi all,

I have tried to install PCTV 100e on a machine with Windows 2003
Server. I have installed it in Windows XP compatibility mode, and the
complete installation process went fine. The same with the graphic test
which was run the first time I started the MediaCenter. Furthermore, I
have run through the search for channels in the MediaCenter Settings,
and the program found approximately 30 channels. However, when I open
MediaCenter and choose TV, I repeatedly receive a message saying "No
channels available yet...". I have tried to answer "Yes" to the
question, and go through the search for channels again - finding the
same channels - but when I then try to turn the TV on, I again receive
that error message.
When I try to answer "No" instead on the question, I get the message
"Failed to initialize TV controller!".

I have also tried installing the system on a normal XP machine - with
the same problems.

I think that it is extremely annoying that the installation of any
products should be so problematic - it is definitely the last time I
have bought anything from that manufacturer!

If anybody have a clue of what can be done, I will be very happy
hearing from you.

Thanks in advance.

In xp,media center,open tools,options,hardware tab,click on the unit,
open properties,see if you can adjust.
 
Hi Andrew,

Thanks for responding to my question. However, I think that there is a
little misunderstanding - the MediaCenter I refer to in my question is
_not_ XP media center edition - but the MediaCenter application which
is delivered together with PCTV 100e. I am running on the XP
Professional platform on one machine and on Win 2003 Server on another
- same troubles on both.

Hope to hear from you.

Best regards,
