My turner card is very screwy

[fluffie]

My hauppauge tv card is not working after I reformatted the computer. I installed the drivers downloaded from their site and the wintv appz. Everything installed with no problems, but when I open up the wintv appz all I get is a black screen. Not only that, when I open the capture avi function under virtualdub, virtualdub will just stop responding. Can everyone help?

Check for conflicts first of all. Go to Control Panel, system, hardware, Device Manage(well, for 2000/ME/XP) Look around for any explanation marks. This is all I can think of right off.

However, I also have a capture card/tv tuner that was given to me. It works fine, untill you try to use the tvtuner. Then it locks the WHOLE system up. Now, if I can use the RCA or S-Vid. connector, it works perfect. So, try and use any other inputs, see if it works then...

there is no explanation marks. i do have a newly installed geforce3 ti200 card with tv-out. can that cause a problem?

Unless you have TV Out on your capture card, I wouln't expect any problems. Thats about like my setup anyway...Winnov Videum input, and ATI Radeon Output.

Another thing you could try is to move the card around. If you have spare PCI slots, try them out. I know my Videum would screw up my mouse when I first installed it. Then, I moved it down to the next PCI slot, and it has worked fine since...
