    Hi all,

    I am slowly building a new HTPC.

    It consists of:

    Asus M4A89TD Pro USB3 Motherboard
    AMD 910e CPU
    Sapphire HD6670 graphics

    All the above works fine. :)

    I then add my Digital Devices Duoflex Cine S2 V5 card and the HTPC boots ok and finds the tuner :)

    I then add the S2 tuner expansion card to the Duoflex Cine S2 V5 card (connects via a short ribbon cable from the main card) to give me 4 tuners in total.

    This is where I have problems. The HTPC wont even boot past the BIOS. The motherboard sits there with just the VGA LED diagnostics light on????

    I know the Digital Devices card (complete with 4 tuners) has previously worked in another machine.

    I will try and put it into another machne and see what happens.

    Anyone else had any problems with the card hanging the HTPC?

    I will email DD and see if they have any ideas...

    Thanks,

    J. :D

    Did you plug the ribbon cable in the right way? IIRC my DuoFlex prevented a successful POST when I got the cable orientation wrong. Not that I discovered this until after I'd buried the card under a CPU cooler... :rolleyes:
