Hi.
I've got DTV2000h and i got the same problem.
I tried 2 uninstall and let windows ubdate install the drivers, but it left 3 devices uninstalled.
At that point my TV server did not see my TV card.
I had 2 installed winfast drivers, then tried to find analog channels and got the message;
The graph building. Mostly your card is not supported by TV server....

Can you please post your TV Server logs please (see my signature for how to do this).

Before I buy this card, am wondering if anyone if they got this card running on windows 2003 Server (Windows Home Server) or Windows XP with TV Server. Note I am not worried about the remote control stuff, just the card itself and tuning with TV Server.

eep.. I just bought one of these cards not realising it can be problematic.. I'm interested to see any responses about it, and will report my experience (winxp sp3) when I get it too..

I have an upgrade to win7 available so may have to resort to that.

Hi again rocklander

I'll keep an eye on your progress. If you have problems then I'd appreciate it if you could post TV Server logs and give me a chance to help you before you resort to W7. There may be something that can be easily fixed, and if that is the case then we always want to know about it. Further, if you report any trouble then I can provide better advice for other people in the future...

Hmmm, funny how these things crop up. You may want to follow -->this<-- thread. Ausdigital has a Winfast DTV 1000 S which is at least partially working in XP...

will do for sure. migration to win7 is inevitable, but happy to delay it for a bit to add to the collective knowledge..
not sure how long it'll take to get here..

okay.. this card arrived today (finally!)

still having 'issues' with my main MP server so decided to test this on my old one .. and when I say old I mean OLD. XP sp3 on an old compaq 2.4Ghz with 1Gb ram.
so I installed the card in the PCI, and booted. did as instructions said (cancel the 'hardware found' screen and install drivers off dvd.. then restart windows).
version of mp was way old (didn't take note but it was pre 1.0) so I uninstalled it completely and installed a clean full 1.1.3.
went to server config and it saw the card as 2 separate ones. scanned and it found all the terrestrial channels happily.

started MP client, and it was very stuttery/choppy (video, not audio) and as soon as I moved the mouse it crashed.
I'm putting the stutter and crash down to crap old hardware rather than this card being an issue..

logs attached (no idea if they're any use to anyone, but they're there in case it's useful).

next step is to sort my win7 box out and then install this card in that.
