Hello,
I bought the TwinhanDTV Hurricane USB DVB-T & Analog TV receiver. When
I plug it in, no "found new hardware" message is displayed and the
setup software does not detect the device.

The PC is compliant with all the requirements and it is strange that
connecting a USB device does not trigger any hardware setup at all. I
suspect the receiver may be malfunctioning. Is there any specific test
I can do before returning it to the shop?

Thank you,

There is a tool here, which will list the enumeration info coming
from the plugged in USB device.

Did the instructions say to install any software before you plug
in the device ?
