[QUOTE="Arakon, post: 100144, member: 28288"] I have a pretty bad issue with the drivers for this stick. I actually have a Hama stick, but it's identical to the freecom, yakumo and eurostick.. the problem is this, for both the BDA and the WDM drivers: the first time I install the driver, it works fine and does the double install (detects another device after installing the first). after this install, the stick works perfectly fine, with mediaportal and any other player I throw at it. now, anytime I plug the stick into another USB port OR simply do a reboot, the stick is no longer working. the first device gets detected fine (USB Capture Stick/DVB-T Loader), however the second device (the actual capture driver) is simply gone and there is no way to re-detect it.. not even after completely wiping the drivers etc. the ONLY way I ever got it to re-detect was doing a complete rollback until before the driver was ever installed. and then the stick works fine, UNTIL the next reboot, where the same stuff starts all over. after the first driver is installed/launched, the stick's LED flashes constantly. So unless I keep resetting my system to before the driver was installed every time I reboot, the stick is completely useless. I am running winXP SP2, tried a PCI USB 2.0 card as well as my onboard USB 2.0 ports, always the same result. And I am not alone with this issue apparently, I have found a bunch of reports of this online, just never a solution. I also tried every driver I found, to no avail.. no matter the version, it's always the exact same issue. Has anyone found any solution for this? I don't understand why the system fails to detect the capture device after the first reboot, and can't even be convinced to look for it after removing the drivers completely. [/QUOTE]
