I am just switching rom Vista 32bt + MePo 1.0.2 to Windows 7 + MePo 1.1

My biggest problem is my Technotrend S2-3200. It works really fine after normal system start, but freezes the system on wakeup from S3 standby. There is no Win7 driver for it, I use the Vista drivers. The system freezes to the extent that not even starting taskmanager or a restart possible! I have to kill it with the power switch, brutally.

- it is not a MePo issue, it freezes ProgDVB also
- it is not 32bit/64bit issue, it freezes Win7 64bit and 32bit both
- it is not a hardware issue, my dual-boot system with Vista 32bit works fine
- I tested all available drivers, all freeze (they work fine on Vista 32bit)

Any ideas? Any help appreciated!

edit: I have tried devcon restart *1131 without success.

Have you tried the beta driver for W7?

Have you tried the beta driver for W7?

thanx man, I overlooked it. I will give a test tomorrow and report.

EDIT:
I have tried the Win7 beta driver (Technotrend 5.0.2.1), same result: freeze of system after resume
I have tried to completely remove MediaCenter: no success
I have tried to deactivate the card before styndby and reactivate after resume: no success, freeze after resume

I have to stick to Vista then really? Or change my TV-Card.

EDIT:
one small achievement: "standby" (save-to-ram) freezes, but "hibernate" works. I can live with that.

Hey,

I've experienced a similar problem with my Technotrend S-2400 (Win7 64bit):

After waking from S3, the LED on the receiver stayed red, not green like it's supposed to. I have to unplug and plug it in again to be able to watch TV.

What worked for me was that I don't plug it directly into the HTPC, but use a USB-Hub in between.
You could try that, maybe you have one lying around.

this is a PCI tv-card, plugging it into a USB hub could be problematic ;-)

Hi,
That is the case for mee too. I use hibernate also, standby simply frozes machine.

for me this card is working without problems, and it is going into s3 sleep mode daily, and no problem after wakeup (see my sys-spec for details)...
