MSI TV @nywhere Stopped Working

Ok, so I got my MSI TV @nywhere about a week and a half ago, great card. Nice quality etc. Now all of a sudden it doesn't work! It came with WinDVR, and now when I load it up I get an error when the TV should pop up (this program has encountered a problem and needs to close). So I reinstall it. Nothing. I Uninstall it, and clean the folder out then install. Nothing. I reinstall the driver for my card. Nothing. I remove everything from the card in the device manager, uninstall WinDVR completely, take the card out, boot up, then shut down and put the card back in and install everything again. Nothing. ARGH! I download the trial for Power VCR II or whatever just to see if it's WinDVR with the problem. But Power VCR can't detect any channels! It says MSI TV @nywhere as the TV Tuner (so it knows it's there). WHAT THE BLOODY HELL IS WRONG!?!?!?

Please help!
 
Wel it's a brand new card and as an early adopter of the product you're bound to run in some questionable issues. Could be a hardware malfunction of some kind so you maybe want to drop a line on an tech support mailadres.

Personly can't think of something that might help you, Sorry. But when you find a solution let us know.

I am just looking for a new tv card and the MS-8876 card might be the thingy where i was looking for. Altough it's still not available on the european market as far as i know, duh .
 
A reply! :p

I'm taking into the place where I got it, and they're going to see if it would work in another computer. But I have a feeling the card is dead.
 
Well, it works in a Windows 2000 machine. (So it's not dead) But after I moved to all my PCI slots, formatted, uninstalled everything, changed my video drivers, made sure everything I have is updated and done everything I can possibly think of, it still doesnt work. I'm guessing it's a Windows XP problem.
 
I installed my tv@nywhere without a hitch. I could watch footage from my camcorder through the s-video port but when i went to watch tv all i get is a blue screen! i tried everything including using power vcr2 but i still get the same result. I made sure all the settings were correct. I m stuck!



P.s

im using
win xp

P4-2.0 hhz

 
I do beleive the MSIDVR is another re-badged InterVideo product from MSI... they are sooooo prone to this type of error it's not funny.....

In fact, I can almost bet you that if you get that message again and click the "more info" link you'll see the problem in the Windows "C" Library file called "MFC42.DLL".

I myself did have the exact same problem with WinCoder, another MSI released InterVideo product... and I received the same sort of strange result. I am led to believe that there is a major issue that combines a driver error and InterVideo's software.... I posted my "reply" to a previous article located at:

Too much to re-post, have a look.
