Hi all!
Recently, i transferred over a TV tuner card from another desktop PC.
http://sgforums.com/forums/2250/topics/406329
As in my other thread above, i mentioned that i wanted TV on my current desktop.
So, i installed it.
But i'm not sure about the drivers/software etc needed and my desktop does not have any program which can help with playing TV.
Info : HP m9490d (I took it from this PC)

Not much info on the card itself...but i noticed a "Contek" on top.
PART ONE:
What operating system are you using?
Because:
1. Searching on the hp website about HP M9490D brings me to this page.
2. On that page there is a link called "Software & Driver Downloads"
3. Clicking on that will bring me to a page where i need to select my operating system.
4. And after going through all the available drivers for all the available operating systems, i realise if i were to choose Windows Vista, there is a driver called :
| » Fall 2008 Original AVerMedia H789 TV Tuner Driver | ||
| 2008-08-27 , Version:7.102.0.45, 1.78M | ||
| Fall 2008 original driver for the AVerMedia H789 PCI-E Hybrid DVB-T TV tuner solutions. | ||
| More info |
5. So i was thinking you can try installing it if your system does not have the driver.

PART TWO:
1. Googling for free tv tuner program will lead me to this website
2. You can try the programs listed there, i think they are freewares.

My OS is windows 7 64-bit.
BTW,Your software link doesnt lead to anywhere.
Tried installing the driver but failed to.
Actually i think i linked the software page wronglly, but not to worry as i wanted you to try the driver .
Have you tried right clicking the setup, and select properties, then click compatability on top, and select it to run for windows vista SP1.
If it still doesnt work, you can try windows update to update the driver. Also try the free programs to see if they work

Doesnt work.
Any idea which TV tuner can work as a stand-alone? Mostly need to be connected to windows media player 11 which windows 7 doesnt support.
