 Unfortunately, I don't know why your tuner isn't working 
 after a reboot... Perhaps the device gets held in reset after 
 a reboot, and it isn't properly being taken out as needed?

 Try the patch in this email and let us know if that fixes the problem:

 That patch resolved the problem for me.

That patch seems to have made the card stable on my system now. I have my
fingers crossed. Thanks! I can't tell you guys how much I appreciate the
help with this.

Where my other cards, the ATI HDTV Wonder and the Kworld 110 ATSC can barely
pick up anything over the air, even with a good antenna, the Pinnacle 800i
picks up pretty much everything using an antenna I made from 6 coat hangers
and a 2x4! (and it's not even amplified, no pre-amp, nothing) Amazing!

digital channels, but if I reboot, for some reason it starts having

Thanks for sending in the obsolete tuner address message -- I'll remove this 
warning for the XC5000 tuners.

Unfortunately, I don't know why your tuner isn't working after a reboot... 
Perhaps the device gets held in reset after a reboot, and it isn't properly 
being taken out as needed?

Try the patch in this email and let us know if that fixes the problem:
