Uninstall the device, reboot, then reinstall. Also make sure you have the latest drivers from the tuner manufacturer. Follow the installation instructions they provide. Other than that, click Start, Run and enter SFC /SCANNOW to start the System File Checker. Another option would be to use System Restore to restore back to a point before the problem occurred.

> Thanks for the fast reply. Judt tried that and the TV did have an error, so uninstalled and reinstalled. Restarted comp and still not working. Check device manager again and the problem says "Device cannot start". Where do I go from here?
