Install MP on Windows XP without SP (2 Viewers)

[RichardC]

Hi there,

I'm trying to install MediaPortal on an older computer. But If I install a Service Pack then my TV card (Pinnacle USB Deluxe) doesn't work anymore.
Is there an archive with old installers for Mediaportal?
I found on Download free trial MediaPortal an older version: 1.0.1 but After installen dotnet and the MSInstaller the MediaPortal installer says that I cant install with this operating system.

Where can I find and install an older version of MediaPortal, or has anyone else got a solution (Yes I know I shouldn't bought it, Yes I know I need an other card... but I just want to see if I can make it work ...

regards,
Richard

what drivers are you using for the pinnacle?

I'm using the Dune Beta 1.7 driver

Ok. Is that the latest build?

If so, what do Pinnacle Customer Support say about the Stick and the issue with the service pack?

Yes, but sadly enough, the product isn't supporter anymore (end of live). I've tried some genrric wdm- drivers but with no luck so far:-(
The tv-tuner was à present from my wife i think almost 8 years ago, so i know i should replace it, but the hardware mpeg decoder is to good to throw away. (allthough i'm not shure wich chip is bying used)

with regards,
Richard
