[QUOTE="gperkinson, post: 342934, member: 83961"] Hi Again 5Hundred, Just when I thought about throwing my PC out the window ...... ....... I had a friend around last night who suggested looking at my Bios settings. Not being that IT Savoy, I have never stuffed around with them. We found quite a few power options in there, one being "S3 Sleep Only". We thought this might stop the PC going into S4 or S5. We also found PCI Card settings which were disabled. Anyhow, we enabled what we thought was right and today I had some sucess with recording on the NOVA 500-T. Noticed one time the PC woke from sleep and went back to sleep just before recording. Changed a few of the Advanced TVS settings and it did not happen again. Will do more tests tonight. I was wondering if I could just keep power on the PCI Cards for the tuners in sleep mode? It's definately something to do with the tuner card re-initialisation - it's got to be a simple setting or tweak as the PVR150 records fine. Will keep you posted and thanks for all you help.
