I see that Microsoft is saying that it supports QAM on Vista Media Center.
Here is the link:

Is it true? I am trying to bring up my HVR-1600 in my Vista Ultimate.

I would appreciate if Microsoft can clarify it.

Thanks,
Jatin

They did clarify it, in the description line:

QAM. Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) is the digital cable standard in
the United States. Windows Media Center supports QAM signals with a Digital
Cable Tuner in the United States.

Note: with a Digital Cable Tuner.

These are currently only manufactured by ATI and are only available with a
new, Digital Cable Ready certified PC.

Also not that not all of the 1600's support QAM, I have one that does not,
you need to check which revision you have.
