[QUOTE="Steve.Rayner61, post: 1093844, member: 117356"] Hey, thanks for the education re TV Tuner throughput. I wasn't aware that the bus was so underutilised by TV Tuner cards - So yes, as you say, why would any manufacturer bother to upgrade to later PCI-e versions (Assuming all Motherboard manufacturers are playing by the rules? :)) Sadly, I concur re the Dell situation. I'm so deeply disappointed with Dell. Up until now, I have always liked their equipment. The AverMedia A188D's are working perfectly in two HTPC's that I've built, both with Asus Motherboards. I was really shocked when they would not work in the Inspiron. Thanks for your time and advice. Nice talking with you :) [/QUOTE]
