Hi there, i'm unable to install/run my old Hauppauge 848/878 Chip PCI TV-Card. The system is running the new Vista beta 2.
The Hauppauge WinTV 878/9 WDM Aux Driver and Hauppauge WinTV 878/9 WDM Video Driver are shown in the Device-Manager without any failures. Sometimes i can hear the Sound of a TV-Channel through my Music-Boxes but its not possible to run WinTV2000 (hangs on Startup, sometimes showing an "WinTV Initialisation Error. hTV=9") or watch TV using other tools like MoreTV or ChrisTV. (It's seems to me that the Card is not correct installed because no video input source is selectable or shown in the "Select video input"-Field of ChrisTV)
Any hints out there? Thanks a lot ... ;)

Problems installing Hauppauge WinTV-PCI 848/878 Chip
I'm experiencing exactly the same problem. I sent Hauppauge an e-mail asking if WinTV2000 was going to support Vista, and they responded by saying that they're working on it. So check the Hauppauge Website for updates. I'd also e-mail them. The more people who inquire about an upgrade may inspire them to work faster.
