Any help is appreciated: We purchased a TV tuner for our PC. (Pinnacle HDTV-pro stick) I have a PC that is about two years old, runs Windows XP Home Edition. The tuner connects via USB port. With the cable attached, the software loaded, etc., all seems okay as long as the TV channels are viewed in the Preview box (which is a smaller picture area). As soon as a full screen view is selected, the video image and sound becomes choppy and halting. Also, the remote doesn’t work very efficiently. There is also a worrisome “runtime error” message that often causes the program to fail. So, in order to trouble shoot, we then installed it onto a brand new HP computer that runs Vista. It worked very well there, with still an occasional “runtime error”- whatever that is…
Is the problem on the older XP PC possibly related to the graphics card or what? Please help- the tv tuner is for our little boy as a christmas present and time is running out! Thanks- Jen
