Hi I have a Shuttle Zen XPC ST62K computer with an ATI chipset (IGP 9100) and
an ATI eHome Wonder TV Tuner all running under MCE 2005. It used to work fine
(up until around June/05) but then I had a h/w problem with the fan, and I
sent the computer back to be repaired/replaced. After receiving the new
computer back (same model) I put my hard drive and Tuner back in but was
unable to get MCE2005 to work properly. It complained about video drives/card
etc. I proceeded to uninstall the ATI drivers and re-installed the latest
drivers (Catalyst 5.9) and eHome 5.03 (1.17.24.231) and DVD decoder s/w, but
still no success. Now I can get TV but I only seem to get channel 4 (Rogers
cable channel guide). All other channels are frozen, choppy, or black. Also
most previously recorded shows cannot playback; screen is black. I have tried
the old drivers (that I used to have working) but it complains about version
incompatability. So my questions are:

1) What versions of drivers should I be running
2) What order should they be installed? i.e. Catalyst before eHome?
3) Should I be installing the full Catalyst 5.9 or should I be installing
the smaller download (says Display Driver, Control Panel,GART Driver, South
Bridge driver)?

Any other ideas as to my problem?

Do I need to totally re-build (re-install MCE, etc) from scratch to have any
hope of success? I'm not sure my activation key will work now some of the
h/w is new.

Thanks,...Roger

Have you tried going thru MCE's TV Settings setup again? That might help.

What DVD decoder software (and version) are you using?

Catalyst 5.9 is the latest one, although I'm still happily using the 5.4
version.
