Can you give us some more details about your problem? What sort of tv card are you talking about? Is it a card that fits into your computer so that you can view tv via the computer or are you talking about a viewing card that goes into a set top box?

Hmmmm - if it's a set top box one have you tried switching off the whole power system, putting the TV card into the set top box while it's switched off then rebooting the system. A bit like a computer recognising a new bit of hardwear?

 

Not very computer literate I'm afraid.

It sounds like it's a TV card for a computer,rather than a STB as computer was mentioned in the title.

 

 

 

What TV card is it?

 

What is the computers' specification and operating system/s?

 

[Assuming it's a PCI based card]How many spare PCI bays does the computer have?

If more than 1 bay spare,try the card in each,and boot up after each try-to see if it's detected,are there any errors? any crashes? if successful,does it accept the cards' drivers?

I think I am lucky to have the ageing ATI radeon 9200/with 256mb dedicated memory[not a lot of good that did for texture writing in GTA3 + FarCry] has a built in TV card,detected easily in some linux distros even.

now problem is i cant get any channals on it at all)

 

i have tried fixing this prob myself tried everything i can think of from reinserting the card to cleaning the solder tracks on the card

 

the tv card was brought from EZ computors wich is a very stupid shop as they dont know much about computors (hell i prob know more about computors then ez<but not with coding tv cards and svr's lol)

 

i have asked on sevral difrent sites about this prob and the only possible soloution i keep being given is to buy a 32bit cpu (wich is not practical and not an option)

 

i dont watch a lot of tv

but would like to get this tv card working as the only rea

Can't really help you, except to say that I'm sure there's a Microsoft headquarters in the UK too. :unsure:

 

In fact a look at the "Contact Us" page on Microsoft's UK web site will tell you all you need to know ...
