HDTV Wonder DTV Keeps Crashing!

I just got an HDTV wonder and am on XP SP2. I ran through the channel
detection (found like 15 dtv channels, cool), but immediately after dtv
shows a picture windows pops up a 'send error message' crash. the tv will
actually keep playing, I can't change the channel though. I've restarted
dtv 3-4 times keeps happening.

OK something that helps is to uninstall your previous MMC (I had a radeon
AIW 9000). Once I uninstalled *both* mmcs I had and reinstalled everything
from the HDTV wonder cd, it seems stable so far...no crash on channel
detect or with tv so far (10 minutes)..WTBS-HD looks sweet watching the
braves game. a little jerky though, like taking a screen shot or even
randomly watching the tv since it's always in time shifting mode
