    I have a PCI-e TV Wonder 650 currently working great in Vista 32bit using VMC for all my recording/watching.

    I only use it for OTA HD broadcasts via antenna.

    I can get a TV Wonder 650 USB at Circuit City for 40.00 since they are closing.

    Can I install the USB one on the same system so that I can record two TV shows at the same time?

    Depends on the capture software.

    Last week I went to nearest Circuit city and found nothing worth buying except an over priced Flight Sim throttle

    MCE will use the 650 for second cap at least for SD. I have no ATSC here so I dunno for HD OTA ATSC.

    Damnskippy wants two OTA HD channels (one from each tuner).

    Good luck.

    But for only $40, why not give it a try?

    Use the latest ATI drivers. If both tuners don't work, try these steps posted by HP (linked from ATI support site):

    I've had two tuners working with MCE Vista (ATI 550 + Hauppauge HDR-1600) but from cable. So I don't haven't been able to try two ATSC.
