PC TV Cardbus tuner for my laptop ...

[maziwanka]

As the title/subtitle say, I just installed Vista and don't have the original CDs that came with this tuner.

The name of the card is PC TV Cardbus and on the back, below the name (stated again) is Philips SAA7134.

I've done a lot of google searching and I can't find the drivers/software for this card online. ANY help would be much appreciated!

Haven't been able to watch tv since I moved back into school.

Thanks!

Philips SAA7134 is just the name of the main chip in it.

Device Manager - card properties - Details - Hardware ID please.

Under Multimedia Controller, I got the following (under Hardware IDs):

PCI\VEN_1131&DEV_7134&SUBSYS_00001131&REV_01
PCI\VEN_1131&DEV_7134&SUBSYS_00001131
PCI\VEN_1131&DEV_7134&CC_048000
PCI\VEN_1131&DEV_7134&CC_0480

Subsys 00001131 indicates that the card vendor was $.02 too cheap and omitted proper card identification.

Unless you manage to track down by other means who tf made it, you're out of luck. (Generic drivers for TV cards aren't feasible - too many design choices around the main chip.)
