Hello!

I've got a little problem and I hope you guys can help me.
Up to yesterday, I was perfectly fine watching DVB-T TV via my Hauppauge Nova-T-Stick BDA device. But sadly, in the afternoon ProgDVB crashed with the video image freezing; I even had to restart my computer because the program didn't respond to my efforts ending it via TaskManager.
Since then I get the following error message everytime I start ProgDVB:
Run DBA graph error!
[OK]

Device not started!
({BDA} WinTV Nova-T Stick DVB-T Tuner (Dev1 Path0) )
[OK]

Reinstalling ProgDVB or trying another version didn't change anything.
I even reinstalled the drivers and the official WinTV v7 software (which still seems to be crap...) but it doesn't find any channels - The SignalMonitor even tells me there wasn't any supported device (or at least it wasn't powered on).

Could anyone please tell me what I can do to get it back working? I don't have a clue what to do next...

My System:
WinXP pro SP3
AMD Athlon64 X2 4200+
Ati Radeon x800 Pro, DX 9, AGP
Hauppauge Nova-T Stick (700009)
ProgDVB 6.03/6.05 worked fine, 6.06 didn't help fix the problem


thanx for your help

If the original software also does not work anymore, there's a big chance, your tuner has gone bad.
Try to remove the stick and driver from the system, restart the machine and try to install it completely again, using another USB host controller or even better another computer to test on.
If this also fails, find your warranty form...
