Hi, I just installed the ccc 8.3 drivers (from 7.9 ones), and I get a very weird thing happening, basically after i installed the new drivers I get a "safely remove hardware" icon the one one gets while using a flash drive on the taskbar, and in it i see a "ATI Unified AVStream Driver" , and below a bit more info "ATI Unified AVStream Driver at PCI bus 1, device 2, function 0"
 
I have installed the new drivers, and later on after that  i opened my case up to clean it up, and removed my 2900xt(pcixpress) card and cleaned it thouroly, also I swapped my tv wionder 650 from one pci slot lower to another one since I wanted for more air to go into the 2900xt, since I thaught that the position where I palced it last time was a bit restricting the airflow....could this be related?...since i see that "ATI Unified AVStream Driver at PCI bus 1, device 2, function 0" ...so maby it has issues that I just swapped the tv wonder to another slot.
 
Also I seem to get much worse tv reception, grainy image, so I bet some of the filters do not work, and i upgraded mainly to the 8.3 to get better tv reception(more advanced filteres were suposed to be aded to the 8.3ccc)
 
Thank You for any suggestions.

Did you uninstall the old 7.9CCC and then reboot into safemode and run Drive Cleaner to get alllll of the old driver files out? If not the old drivers might be causing conflits/problems. I suggest uninstalling the drivers and using Drive Cleaner to get rid of the old junk.

Hey... I have just run across this exact problem. Only I did not alter anything having to do with my ATI graphics card, my ATI TV tuner, or the Catalyst Control Center or the drivers pertaining to any of them... All I did was install a secondary SATA1 hard drive in my case and this problem cropped up. Any ideas?

I came across this article on the ATI website's knowledge base:
 
737-28532: TV Wonder™ products - Safely Remove Hardware appears in system tray for ATI Unified Stream Driver
 
    The information in this article applies to the following configuration(s):
 
        * TV Wonder™ 650
        * TV Wonder™ 550
        * Theater 550 PRO
        * Theater 650 PRO
        * Microsoft Windows Vista 32bit Edition
        * Microsoft Windows Vista 64bit Edition
        * Microsoft Windows XP Professional
        * Microsoft Windows XP Home Edition
        * Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition
        * Microsoft Windows XP Professional x64 Edition
 
    Symptoms:
    In the Windows system tray, the "Safely Remove Hardware" icon may list the ATI Unified Stream Driver. If the user attempts to stop the device, an error message will be given that the ATI Unified Stream Driver is in use.
 
    Solution:
    Currently there is no solution. Users with this problem using Windows Vista can revert back to using driver version 7.4.  Users with this problem in Windows XP can revert back to using the previous driver version 6.14.10.232.
 
    ATI Engineering has been advised of this issue and is investigating. Any updates will be published when they become available.
