FYI........
Hi Bob,
I also purchased the WinTV-go card a while back, ended up returning
because
I couldn't get to work. Same problem (locking up system), tried all different
kinds of confiurations with no success. I then purchased the WinTV-pci and had
no problems.
Worked on the first boot, I still am capturing video till this day...
Troy
