It connects to a USB port. You have 2 on the right side of your laptop. The device has two RCA ports which should provide the connections you seek.

A device like this one or similiar should give you the best "Quality" audio transfer.

But if cost is more of an issue, you can find "Patch cables" at you local electronics store to go from RCA jacks to stereo headphone jack this will allow you to port the information in through your Microphone jack.

Hopefully this helped you,

three. Did you try reinstall vista ultimate again.
four. or install the card in another slot.

he don't work

Simple, go to HP website or Cnet. If not, email me and I will see what I can do.

You need to have a tv tuner to be able to watch tv. If the express card you have is a tv tuner, you'll have to run a cable from the laptop to your cable tv connection or set top box. You can't do it over the internet.

Have u installed all drivers?

Hi!

You may check Device Manager first to check if your TV tuner is still properly installed or still detected by your computer. For Windows XP - Control Panel > System > Hardware > Device Manager and check if the TV tuner is still there.

If you cannot see the TV tuner under Device Manager , unplug then replug your tuner and see if something will pop up under "Other Devices" (still under Device Manager). If it does, then you need to right click it and reinstall the driver. You can just download the driver/software over the net.

Now, if your computer does not detect it at all try another PC to test if the problem is with your PC or just the tuner.

Good luck and have a nice day!

i ahve the same issue.

Take a look at this guide

See if the channels match in your market area.

yes

the cd should take you to a website where you can find it

Sorry the chat message was not visible to me so im posting the answer here incase you have any question post the message here its gona be free.

The difference between your TV tuner and your graphics card (at least what matters here) is that the TV tuner takes an input from your cable line or an antenna and draws to the frame buffer, it is an input. The graphics card takes that frame buffer and creates the signals needed to drive your monitor's screen, it is an output device.

graphics cards usually provide the s-video connection so you can do things like hook up your desktop to your living room television instead of a monitor. It is inherintly a different type of device than the tv tuner.

Some graphics cards do have video inputs for video mixing, but it is not likely that a regular PC owner would own them

its definitely something you did.
theres a way to wipe system back to original pn hp screen.. F10.. that might fix..
if it dont. then bios is the issue.

I have had this problem also the way I fixed mine was to download a driver from http://www.hauppauge.com/site/support/support_mce.html then go and buy yourself a digital antenna.. it cannot be a regular one cause it does not have the proper digital capture.. this all fixed my problems

go to http://www.hauppauge.com/site/support/support_mce.html to down load media center drivers to run the hp expresscard tv turner in windows media center works with xp and vista

try this solution http://www.hauppauge.com/site/support/support_mce.html i hope that this will work..

Hello Matt,

WISH YOU HAPPY MERRY CHIRSTMAS!!!!!!!!

I am Vikram Kumar Thumu from India- Hyderabad. I have seen your message on the issue related to the Tv Tuner card. Since, I work with HP as Technical Support I would like to suggest you on this issue.

Well, the "HP ExpressCard TV Tuner for Windows Vista
(RM436AA#ABA)" supports only for Windows Vista.... and it will not work with Windows XP.

If you are lookng for Windows XP Tv Tuner Card, I recommend you to purchase Hauppauge WinTV-PVR USB2 (EC557AA#ABA). As this one supports for Windows XP but needs Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 .

These are available solution for you at this moment . I hope that this should resolve the issue for you.

If you need any other information please do mail me at [email protected]. I'll be glad to help you.

Once again WISH YOU HAPPY MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!


Thanks,
Bye...
