Thank you very much for your reply. I checked my files against that thread and saw I had the correct files but then if I have one of the two cards working and that one card has two tuners then that patch is not valid since I have two out of the four tuners working also the second computer that I am trying this install on is as I state XP PRO SPK2 with latest updates. Again this patch is for MCE. I must point out again that both XP PRO and XP MCE sees both cards in device manager! Media Portal only will see ONE card TWO Tuners on that card. When asking Media Portal to locate the third tuner I received an error message that there are no more tuners installed. Both machines very happy to record two programs at the same time different channels just fine. Bloody fantastic and I MUST SAY MEDIA PORTAL IS EXCELLENT. When MS rolled out MCE for resellers I was a royal pain their bottoms. They kept taking credit for things this company and ShowShifter did. Of course I raised my hand and asked like the game show, "Who was Showshifter" etc. I never like MCE so when I built my bedroom system I installed XP Pro and Team Media Portal, it seems like there has always been Media Portal installed. I keep MCE on the living room CPU so that when reading in the forum of problems I can check between the two OS's and report back if there are any differences. Such as now but then there is no difference between the two OS's! Both OS's running Media Portal latest SVN refuse to see the second card THIRD tuner. Of course there has been problems running Media Portal and always udating to the latest SVN but that is too be expected with Beta cutting edge software. Go Team Go! Thanks again for your post but I are still broke. Going crazy now. IceHappy
