Went I try to use the TV Tuner my system crash   I got WinTV PCI with up to date drivers installed, I'm running Windows XP Pro SP1 with DirectX 9  

I also have a Voodoo 3500TV card I like to put on my computer but I don't know if Media Center 9 will work with it.

Did you get any message when it crashed? What is the version number of your WinTV driver?

Several users have encountered problems, and there seems to be a faint link to DirectX9. I will have to do more investigation on that.

I also have a Voodoo 3500TV card I like to put on my computer but I don't know if Media Center 9 will work with it.

We have not tested this board. But maybe some other users have. The easiest thing to do is to just try it out. Usually if the card's driver is WDM, it should work.

I did not get any error message I got the blue screen of death. Then Windows XP rebooted. So after it booted back up I removed all drivers to WinTV card then shut the computer down Removed the card.

Then I try 3dfx Voodoo 3500 TV card with drivers installed they worked

Just curious, do you have developer's debug version of DirectX 9 installed on your system?

I had similar problem on a Windows 2000 system, with debug version of DirectX8.1 runtime - the system could not even start when Hauppauge driver was installed.

Hauppauge is very problematic.

That is good news.
