Pinnacle + Win98SE Problems

Strage thing is happening. On my current installation I get my Pinnacle StudioTV to work fine. The rest of my Win98SE is not working well. Most of the programs have gone south.

When trying to do a reinstall (Win98SE) on a new harddisk (Seagte 20Gb) my TV Software doesn't want to work (The PC freezes up) even though I didn't change the PCI cards beteen installs. (I have the newest drivers for Savage, Mboard, PCTV Pro card, etc)

I have a Pinnacle PCTV Pro TV Tuner, Savage4 AGP 32Mb, Athlon700, 128Mb Ram, 17Gb Seagate , Epox 7KXA motherboard, Intel Pro100+, Tower with 300W powersupply.

I have reinstalled 98SE 3 times and doesn't want to work even if I change the cards around (Freezes the PC). It does work on my old disk even when I change the cards around. On the old install I have Savage4 "Engineering Bitflip" Drivers and the new drivers just say Savage4 (23 November 1999). Can that be a problem / solution? Don't have the original drivers though..

Please help.

Going to try Win2000 as a dual boot to see if that will help.

Perhaps Windows does not like the new drivers, since new does not always mean better. You could try to transer the files from the old driver into the new disk, might solve the problem.
