[QUOTE="rocklander, post: 765688, member: 103900"] hmm.. this is interesting.. I never looked before, but I do see a red link and a black one ("power pass" listed on the red one.. it's a 'hills' brand). there's every chance I swapped these at some stage, or even if I didn't the OS may have a different 'order' in which it addresses the cards. my XP -> win 7 process was part of a windows upgrade pack (pb tech have them for NZ$240 odd, and that means you can upgrade XP, vista or home starter on 3 machines.. good bang for buck!). the upgrade media looks for a currently installed valid windows OS and if it's XP gives a warning that it will be a fresh windows install.. which is what I essentially got (it just means that if I wanted to do it again, I'd need to install XP first, then upgrade again). back to the dual LNB stuff.. I'm expecting that I don't have a dual unless sky did that as default. there's defo only one cable coming in from the dish. is it prudent for me to remove optus D2 satellite? bearing in mind that I [U]do[/U] get SBS, and I also am having success intermittently. my gut is pointing to an OS and/or driver and/or codec issue perhaps my mp likes to take out a couple of hours for dinner?;) [/QUOTE]
