[QUOTE="Cordraconis, post: 1226843, member: 159447"] Hm, OK. So it crashes while scanning, but did it actually detect some channels? If you have a few of them, you can try to "zap" or switch between the ones you got and see if you can crash the system that way. With me they crashed/hanged after about 10 times switching/zapping and then I found out some channels were detected multiple times so I figured the cards got confused by this and I manually put all the frequencies just once there. I'll do a quick check, hang on: Go to TV Configuration > Channels and pick one in the "Channels" list and press "Edit" If you see the same channel multiple times, but with different ID's, then this does not help for stability. Read up on merged channels (you can combine the same channel in analog and digital version - which I have done), to get a grasp on what you can (possibly) see there. If possible, try to find a frequency list for your area and consider removing all channels and just adding them manually *once*. Also if I'm not mistaken, your card is a hybrid one, so make sure to set it up the right way: in the beginning after switching 3 times a channel, I couldn't watch anything anymore as all the tuners were busy since it thought I had 4 of them, while in reality there are only 2 chips.
