[QUOTE="dm15644, post: 126080"] I have spotted another issue with new drivers: After installing them, my system wouldn't shutdown/standby/hibernate anymore. It went to the "last" screen before the machine normally would power off (or, when hibernating, write to disk starts), that is a plain background with the mouse cursor at its last position. I identified the IR driver as the problem. This one is found in Control Panel/System/Device Manager/HID Input Devices. I have no clue why, but this device cannot be disabled, just uninstalled. When uninstalling this one the system would shutdown *once*. Unfortunately, during the next startup, the device is installed again automatically, no way to avoid this (?).... thus again no shutdown. More bad news: HCWCLEAR doesn't remove the IR driver. So, even if you try to remove the new Hauppauge (TV) drivers and install older ones, the crappy IR driver is again installed. Lucky me, I went back to an old HD image. To conclude, I've actually made bad experiences with the new drivers, and I haven't seen much positive feedback. For the time being I will stick with driver version 31f. Cheers jayrock [/QUOTE]
