Swimmer Posted March 3, 2006 CID Share Posted March 3, 2006 never owned a tv tuner.. but the review look alright for the product.. http://www.bjorn3d.com/read.php?cID=636&pageID=788 http://www.hardwarecentral.com/hardwarecentral/reviews/5357/1 Could be poor drivers on their part.. look like the install docs suck.. so just download the latest ones from their website.

Its a soundblaster live 24bit Edit: swimmer your links arent working. Saying page can not be displayed I have the card an that is 100% right ... but I think there is some place I read about making it work. Lost interest when trying to get it work. So didn't try it.
