330103 2005-03-02 23:39:00 i recently purchased a pci tv tuner card for my new pc (Prolink PixelView PlayTV)

after installing the drivers and software with no problems, i ran the program to find the computer will freeze :annoyed:

I have since updated to the latest drivers and software for the card, but the same problem happens when i run the tuner program, computer will freeze (lock up )

:help:
any idears?
anyone had similar problems?

330108 2005-03-03 03:51:00 Try another PCI slot??

Is this the Platinum mobo with PCI and PCI-E?

Did u buy this system, or assemble it yourself?? If u made it up, I would check the manual, see which PCI slot you should be putting this TV tuner card into .
