Have updated all drivers but Haugpauge support tells me that media center has problems if you have over 3GB's of ram.

Therefore I can't program Media Center to record programs that I want because the guide is point to other channel frequency. I've the Vista Ultimate.

I have a HTPC w Vista Home Premium. it wakes up in the middle of the night to DL updates and or schedules for the guide. I have used a little utility to change the time for the DL and the time for installs of patches. So hopefully it will not start at night now.

I've been happily using Windows Media Center for Vista with absolutely NO problems. After installing the update, pure chaos.

The one exception is the flakiness of the CableCard anytime I have to reboot (and this is Windows afterall!). If you do a standard restart (like after installing an update) 1 of 2 things generally happens. 1 is that the OS doesn't see the ATI tuner at all. Don't need to say much more about that one... 5 6/8/2007 11:24:13 PM Tales of CableCard Woe - Sony VGX-XL3 Edition I bought the Sony VGX-XL3 about a month ago, and for the most part I am happy with it.

I have Vista Premium, while trying to use the Media Center to watch TV (Hauppauge DVR150) some of the channells start to play, then I get a Restricted Content message.

Then when I choose it inside Media center, it offers the option of burn to CD/DVD, so I chose to burn to a DVD. The message comes up, says it could take a few hours, and to click ok to continue & wo... 1 5/3/2007 7:33:01 PM 2 Pages: 1  2
