You're welcome. Glad to have been able to help.

Dell doesn't seem to want to link to the latest drivers for some odd reason.
You (unfortunately) aren't alone.

BINGO!
Jason you are a genius! I downloaded the newest driver for the Angel II
Dual TV Tuner. That's all it took. Too bad the guys at Dell couldn't
find
that solution.
Thank you sooooo much.

Doug -

Thank you for the suggestion. I just reinstalled the driver for
Realtek
ALC850 AC97 Audio and installed updates for Emuzed TVT3 Dual TV Tuner,
and
the NVIDA 256MB PCI Express X16 GeForce6800 Drivers. I still have the
same
situation.

I have a DEll XPS 600 with the Media Center Edition of XP. The live
TV
was
working fine until I had to reinstall the operating system due to a
software
issue with the anti virus program from Trend. Now Live TV does not
work.
The picture stops ever second and the sound is like chipmunks. I
have
spent,
not hours, but days with the technicians at Dell. I have had the TV
Tuner
card replaced. I have had in home visits. It does not appear to be
a
hardware problem.
I have searched the forum and tried everything that I thought might
be
related. I have updated the drivers, reinstalled Cyberklink Power
DVD
5.7,
reinstalled .net framework 1.1, reinstalled the display drivers from
NVIDIA.com.
This was not my first problem with the Dell XPS. Shortly after I
received
it the machine stopped working at all and Dell replaced the Power
Supply,
Mother Board and Processor. There also was a fan that was not
working.
Finally I insisted on a new computer from Dell built to the original
configuration. They are sending a "refurbished" one. I am afraid
that
I
will just inherit the same problem if I don't know what is going on
with
this
one. Are there any suggestions out there???
