Anyone here have the WinTV PVR150 MCE?

[GoingUp]

Edit: Well the card works but not with orb...

can someone try goingto www.orb.com and installing the software on their windows xp machine with a mce tuner and telling me if they can get it to work? I would appreciate it!

yes it does, I have it and used Beyond TV 3 trial and that expired. I moved on to GB-PBR, but can't get that to work yet.

I have the 250MCE myself, and all you need are the standard 250 (or in your case, 150) drivers from the Hauppauge website.

Any error messages or just a generic "Window's did not find drivers..."?

What motherboard chipset? I'm thinking it's some wierd SW bug since windows "sees" it.

Thanks RossMAN! Just doing my best (and I'm bored ) I'm also thinking of buying this card, so if GoBadgrs has problems, I could have problems too.

Did you try "Have Disk", AFAIK mine only installed the drivers when I did it with the Have Disk thing.
