[QUOTE="rocklander, post: 766003, member: 103900"] further. I've just finished trying this in win7 home prem (32 bit) without fault. I first removed my 2X nova s plus cards, installed this and as per instructions, installed the drivers from the dvd. (note that 'cancelling' the driver install wizard isn't an option in win7. it just said that the driver failed to install automatically, but I then went on to install via media and reboot the system). scanned on both instances (as mentioned above the one card appears as two instances in mp server config) and both picked up all the HD channels happily. tried running it up on an external screen and it worked fine, so tried via HDMI and also fine. changes channels 'okay' (not especially fast, but I am used to having two cards on separate buses so that's likely the delay.. at least I hope so) and recorded one channel whilst swapping to others happily too (differing muxes too.. recorded tv2 and then watched tv3, FOUR, U and TV3+1). then viewed the recorded TV and there was no stuttering or anything. things I did note: some initial stuttering (at most 2 seconds) but I hope that's buffering or something? the viewing was 'windowed'... letterbox style. I suspect that is cos I have currently got 2X VDU accessing the nvidia card (the LCD TV via HDMI and a 17" LCD test screen I have via VGA). overall I am happy that the card is suitable to use for me, and now I need to figure out if I buy a second one, or if I get a hybrid (so I can use the EPG). I have a week's leave in a fortnight so will work further on that then. if anyone wants logs, speak now cos I'm going back to my previous config (need the extra channel access that 2 cards offer).
