[QUOTE="rpmnz, post: 234163, member: 57498"] I have now got the computer to recognise my two skystar2 cards and TVserver can see them and scan for channels. I have also rolled back drivers so that I can use setup4TV.exe, which shows two satellite icons in the task bar now. Unfortunately I am now getting no signal into the computer. Which is just about causing me to pull my hair out. I was getting a signal prior to starting this exercise and as far as the dish, cable etc is concerned nothing has changed (I've removed the splitter). So first question , given that hardware is unchanged is it likely that there is anything in the software to cause no apparent signal. I've checked and re-checked transponder and symbol rate etc. 12456 12483 22500. The only thing here that i haven't tried is that I have somehow mixed up my LNB at 11300 when it should be 10750. Which is the setting for a newer LNB?. I'm trying to think of simple things I can have done wrong. 2. Should the SS2 cards appear as a network adaptor or video device in the hardware manager? I have them as video adaptors. This doesnt seem to cause any differences as far as the apps are concerned. 3. If it isn't software how likely is it that the LNB for example has given up the ghost coincidentally at the same time. It's pretty new but possibly a cheap version? I'm going to have a look at it tonight an then probably get a professional to come and check the satellite install so that I can at least take that out of the equation.
