You know what? This is EXACTLY what has been happening to me lately,
since I switched to the Tyan Tiger 100 motherboard from the BP6.
However, I'll just be flipping through channels and it will just lock up,
exactly how you describe it. I haven't been able to reproduce it
consistantly though. Other than that particular lockup, I haven't had
any problems after switching away from the BP6. Oh, and the WinTV card
is in PCI slot 1(closest to the AGP slot).
