pinnacle help

if anyone can help here, i have a pinnacle pctv card, was running media centre 4xx, have now got vista and cannot reload due to driver unavailibilty, tried to download from pinnacle the beta of tv centre which will work but it crashes at 90%, anywhere else can this be found????or any ideas??

ok lets start again.....if i was going to buy another....tv tuner card, which one is most recommended???

Agree with Ryan, wait until Vista SP-1. Regarding your desire for a new card after the "fire," how much are you willing to spend? Do you want to capture OTA digital, or just analog? One tuner, or two?

I have a Dazzle USB video editing device that came with pinnacle software. It worked with out a problem until I did a windows update. It would lock up when rendering the video, so I took a look at what windows updated. I found an update that was done to media player which was the only thing even remotely related to the problem. I uninstalled that update and low and behold it works flawlessly again. I have tons of home video between 1985 and 2006 that was on VHS and VHS-c that I have been converting to DVD. I have been doing like 3 or 4 a week since november and Im almost halfway there. Your problem now gives me another reason not to upgrade to Vista until Microsoft and other companies like Pinnacle get there things straight. I still have a Parallel port zip drive that I still use on occasion.
