Thank you for your help, Alan. I have already started to run the driver
stability test on another host with completely different hardware and even
though the test has been running without problems for 2 1/2 days now, I
quess I'll have to wait till the end of the week until I'm confident that
the problem really was related to the previous machines hardware (Amd
Athlon XP/Asus A7V880/VIA KT880-chipset/Nexus 500W power supply). As the
Terratec USB-tuner doesn't have its own power cord, its totally dependent
on USB-bus supplying the power and thefore your guess about inadequate USB
power support might actually explain the unexpected device disconnections.

Regards,
Tomi Orava
