Does your card work fine in another PC? Just to verify it isn't broken 
(the other possibility, of course).

The PVR150 is of course just encoding, not decoding (only the PVR-350 
can do that). But the WinTV PVR USB2 is a USB-based encoder using 
exactly the same encoder chip, although you need to use the pvrusb2 
driver for that one.
