Default Have a problem with your satellite card?

Don't be shy, ask away here!

Black screen?

Can't get the drivers loaded correctly?

You get audio but no video?

Jerky picture, intermittant sound?

Can't get a lock on your satellite?

Poor performance, wonder if your PC is fast enough?

Want to add Pay TV channels?

Can't get DVBViewer to do what you want?

Having trouble choosing a better viewer application?

Windows wants to setup a new network device... what do I do?

Can I use a subscription card?

Can't scan a satellite, find a transponder, update your channel list/transponder list or apply S2emu?

It's not so much the satellite card as the software - but yes, I believe it can all be made to hang together.

You'll need somewhere to insert a card though. It's sharing, not leaching. A card programmer hanging off the serial port used to to the job, but I'm a bit out of date.

Yep I think it can be done but I am not sure how it all works and like stick says you do need an original (i think) card to share and you also need to be online most of the time. Not really up on this subject but am willing to help in any way I can

Default Re: Have a problem with your satellite card?

Hi, I'm new on this forum, pls sorry for my bad english. I have SkyStar 2 PCI (rev 2.6c) maybe 2 years and everything has been working perfect, I was using WindowsXP Pro + SP2. Now I Install SP3 (not beta, I install Final release) on my WinXP and my skystar2 doesn't work. I found new BETA drivers from technisat (4.4.3 beta) and I have installed them. But from that moment I don't have any signal with my skystar2 card. No signal on Server4PC, no signal on AltDVB, no signal on ProgDVB :S:S:S

Any Solution? Thx

hmm not installed sp3 yet and if that is the case I don't think I'll bother. The only thing I can suggest is to try some older drivers if you can still get them sorry can't be of any more help
