It says
[sky star 2] Devise not started


I used the 32 bit version and it is working just fine,

however, I want to change to the 64 bit version

anyone can help ??



I am using the latest version of progdvb 6.42.06
and the latest version of the skystar driver 4.6.0 with win 7 64 bit

You must install BDA driver.

I tried to install the BDA driver manually from (skystar2 driver folder) version 4.6.0

but something odd is happening

my computer recognize the driver as a sound driver not as a network driver
I don't know why

see attachment

because this is a bda driver...its ok ;)

If you use wdm drivers ...then it comes as a network driver ...but this is not possible to use this on win 7 64 bit

aha, I understand now, thank you :). about the WDM driver I can use it on win7 64bit but only while using progdvb 32bit.


so I installed the BDA driver correctly, but at the end, it did not work too

when I tried to run the progdvb I got that message as in the attachment

hmm...do you installed only the driver or driver + the software package that came with the card ?

i guess its only the driver ...

try to install the software package too...maybe some parts of this package are needed to run the card successfully in progdvb...

finally it works

the problem was that I did not run progdvb as an administrator

however it was a very bad experience

only one sat worked with me , the other sat did not work even though there is a strong signal

although I had a blue screen, and forced to restart my computer


looks like I will go back to progdvb 32bit with WDM driver for the time being

thank you SiLencer, Prog, for your support
