Hello all!

I just installed Windows 7 beta and I have hauppauge/TT premium DVB-C card. It is very old card. something like 2000 or 2001. Anyway it works under linux with dvb-ttpci driver and has SAA7461 or something chip.

And as I started progDVB I got red crosses and exceptions. Any luck of getting those bugs fixed? progdvb is 6.04.01

Naturally I don't have the original drivers. So has it any use on windows or would it work better as a shooting target.

Any ideas?

Of course you need proper drivers.
Those should be available from technotrend.com, who in fact made all the Premium cards.
Maybe you have to force use of those in some kind of compatibility mode / use anyway.
You won't need the virtual networking device, only the multimedia component, like on Vista.

Another aspect, worthy to give it a try, try an old version of ProgDVB (with the correct driver only, of course), up to 4.84.1
