Hi bermag,

I won't comment on the quality of the cards from Terratec but here is what happened:

- I bought the first card from them that tuned all channels well and seemed to work well

- Until I realized that it would loose the signal after some 3-10 minutes after resuming from S3 sleep

- So I send the card back and actually bought another card, same make same model

- Installed the new card and it worked fine, no resume problems

- Until I realized that only one of the two tuners worked. I could not scan with one of them, not in MP not in Terratec's own SW

- By this time I had gotten an RMA card back for the first one I sent back so I installed that beginning of this week.

And it works! No resume problems, both tuners working (so far)!

I hope to get my money back fo the second card because I don't really have a need for four tuners, nor do I have the PCI-E slots to install it.

So, either I have been very unlucky, or there is a quality problem with this card from Terratec. Having said that, they have not argued about the replacement of the cards so it has been a fairly smooth process to get the cards replaced.
