Hi Madnlooney, welcome to the forum.

Although I've never heard of a Technisat before, it's probably going to help out those who have if you can give us some more info:

• Which drivers are you using with the card?
• Which software are you scanning in (VMC, DVBDream, etc)?
• Have you tried any other DVB softwares to see if they work?
• Which transponder files are you using? Are they in the right format the software is expecting?
• Which area do you live in (ex-TW, ex-C&W, etc)?

If you can post up the answers to these, I'm sure someone who knows more than me will see a solution jump out.

Good luck.

Hi thank you for the welcome, heres the driver page from there site i use

_http://www.technisat.com/indexf127.html?nav=Software_Drivers,en,39&download =detail&produktID=1412

i have tried using progDVB and im in Ex-C&W area so was using 6887. The freqs i was also using was straight from a services.xml so i know they should be working fine.
Even looking in the pci card software it says$ theres no signal recieved

I think it could be your symbolrate (6887) try using 6952 (mine in ex C&W) in your transponder then scan.
