[QUOTE="markr, post: 80405, member: 18947"] Sebrock I have the same problem with a Nova-t 500. I have been searching round the web and found a whole heap of complaints about this card and the signal strength it needs for it to work smoothly. It seems as though the signal splitter on this card looses quite a lot of signal strength and the symptom seen on the PC is a stutter, intermittant sound and other inconsistent performances. I would therefore suggest that the same cause might be applicable on your system. there are links to a Hauppauge distributed tool that will report the signal strength for you Tuner card allowing you to compare. I have an Avermedia A16AR and a Hauppauge Nova-t 500 in the same system and the Avermedia card always shows 100% signal strength, the Nova-t (which is the same I think as your HVR1300 but without the Analogue options) shows 60-80% when I move the the same aerial between the cards. I also get a BSOD when I enable both cards in MP 0.2.0.4 but that's a different issue, both work fine on their own, but I can't get 3 tuners at the moment. [/QUOTE]
