Hi, I have had a Vista 32bit MP media centre as my main TV setup for nearly a year now, using various different TV cards. I recently thought I would have another go at Vista 64, I do enjoy a challenge. I amy using a Technotrend S2 3200 (DVB-S) and a Hauppauge Nova T-500 (DVB-T). So I installed Vista 64 Ultimatte onto a fresh empty drive, then installed "SQLEXPR.EXE", then "2 - SQLServer2005_SSMSEE_x64.msi", then MP. Try a channel scan with the DVB-S card but just says no signal on all frequencies. I then put an old Pinnacle 7010i card in and that worked ok in that itfound channels, but then when playing back live TV in MP the picture was either very jerky or totally black picture with no sound.
It works about 40% of the time with no real pattern. I think it may be down to the individual TV card and drivers. I am getting very different results from different drives on the Pinnacle 7010i.
My issues seem to be down to the make of the card and the drivers, I get completely different results if I change either of these, none of which are usable.
