76642 2002-09-05 06:37:00 Hi, I've just got a new Lifeview Life TV USB Tuner and installed all the software and drivers with it. But every time I go to start the application it says it has caused an error in USBTV.exe. I've restarted heaps of times but the same thing keeps happening.

The miminum specs for the product are

166MHz or better CPU
Windows® 98
10MB free HD space
16MB RAM
CD-ROM drive for software installation
1MB SVGA adapter (2MB or more suggested) with DirectX support
28.8K or better modem for video conferencing, free USB port

My computer is
700MHz
Windows ME
10GB free space
128 RAM
and I have all the other stuff except maybe the video card, mine is a Intel 82810E Graphics Controller

Any ideas on what the problem is?

Interestingly under XP I got the same error...and its not USB.

Recently I noted they had released a new driver for XP, tried it and it works, better than it ever did under ME.

I would first visit their website and check if you have the latest drivers, as under ME it had to limp along on a W98 driver in my case.
