    Hi
    I'm new to the whole MCE thing so sorry if my questions have been covered before/are stupid.
    I have a Dell laptop with Windows MCE. I bought a tv card however it does not seem to work with MCE even though it is listed as being compatible. I know the tv card works as it functions fine with the provided software (although it only picks up RTE1,Net2,TV3,TG4). Am I missing something? Each time I run the setup in MCE, it tells me that I can't set it up using Ireland as the regional settings so I choose the UK.
    Help is appreciated


    If I choose Ireland as my region, I get the error "The tuner hardware does not support the TV format for your region. You may need to install different tuner hardware that supports the appropriate TV format"

    it sounds like you have a digital tv tuner installed.

    So does that imply it won't work with analog stations with Windows MCE? (It does with the supplied software) :confused::confused:

    if its a digital tuner it simply cannot tune analog stations.
