Thread: Windows Media Center Vista + 102g

Nice job Willie! I'll tell you what I did, I installed the patched drivers and then went back and installed the latest Twinhan Digital TV package over it...and it worked fine. Might wanna try that too.

You are using Windows 7 64 bit, right?

Yes, I am. I know it sounds weird and doesn't make since but it worked for me. It seems like if you just install the raw patched drivers it's missing some component, but when you install the Digital TV package, it works. I couldn't get DVBDream to recognize the card until I installed the Digital TV package, then it worked fine. I still haven't got my dish up to test the signal. I've been either sick or the weather hasn't cooperated.

I have tried this over and over, but can't get it to work. After disable driver signature enforcement, the DVB-Data app locks onto the TP I am trying to get, but no other program will do it. WMC finds the card but says it can't find any signals and to check my connection. The newest DTV package installed correctly and will run, but when I try to lock a signal using it, it finds nothing. Last night Twinhan DTV looked like it was trying, but the Q was only around 12%, whereas at the same time the Q was around 35% in DVB-Data (the TP at 12061 on AMC4), I don't understand why the two programs from Twinhan are showing such different results. It's nice to get the signal locked in with DVB-Data, but I can't do anything else with that program. It seems like the drivers should be working fine if DVB-Data works with my 1020a, but then why wouldn't any other program work? Am I missing something??

Willie,

That is odd. I wish I could say I've tested mine but I haven't. I worked all day last Wednesday mounting my dishes, and since then have been working everyday so I haven't had a chance to align them and run coax...hopefully I can get to that this week. Unfortunately Twinhan doesn't want to get it together and code a 64-bit driver...why, I have no idea. It definitely sounds like you have a driver issue going on. Maybe we should e-mail Twinhan and request Windows 7 support.

I sent them an email last week and got no response. I sent another email earlier this morning as well, so hopefully I'll get something out of them this time.

Guys I'm in the same situation as you are, so I got a few questions:

I'm using Windows 7 x64 after installing DTV 3.4 and then reboot with -disable signed drivers I got it recognized in MCE and ProgDVB but I cannot get any channel, I can't even get signal from FastSatFinder so I really would like to get that patched driver you mention in this thread and also a recap about how to install it, if I'm not wrong the way to install it is:

- Patched x64 driver
- DTV 3.4
- Boot in -signed drivers

is this correct?

I actually did it backwards. I turned off the UAC, installed the Patched x64 driver, and then installed DTV 3.4. Like I said, I can't verify a signal because I have nothing hooked up, but everything is detected and installed properly. I've attached the driver I found on another forum somewhere. I can't take credit for it, nor can I offer any kind of "warranty." Good luck, let me know what you guys find. Hopefully, I can join in on the party soon. I'm about to send Twinhan an e-mail myself.

Thanks for the driver but I still can't make this card to work in Windows 7 x64
