| Theatre 550 Pro Driver issues with Vista 32 bit Hey, This is my first venture into the world of tv/Video capture and its not going to well. I cant seem to find a driver for my capture card, only a bundled "Catalyst" which my system doesnt seem to like. It tells me that its installing the driver for some other wierd product (USB 2 650 ... blah blah). Does anyone have any idea where i can find the driver for this decive without all the other annoying bundled package. If there is anyone else out there that has had problem with this card in conjunction with Vista and can offer insight i would highly appreciate it. Also setting up the Vista Media Center to use this card, any help there would be great. ATI rocks, but navigating thier site is a nightmare. I await insight from you great brain boxes. Rick |

| Re: Theatre 550 Pro Driver issues with Vista 32 bit It isn't terribly difficult to find the driver if you know the name of the product. This is the 32-bit Vista driver for ATI Theatre 550/600/650 products AMD GAME! Drivers and Utilities If that does not work then you don't have one those. Just follow the wizards in Vista media centre and it should set itself up. |

| Re: Theatre 550 Pro Driver issues with Vista 32 bit The thing is that the Catalyst package doesnt work with some hardware configurations. I found a work around though, using third party beta drivers i forced my system to recognise the device. From there i manually specified the driver location which was created by the catalyst installer, by default C:\ATI ... |

| Re: Theatre 550 Pro Driver issues with Vista 32 bit Is there any chance you would be so kind as to walk me through the steps of forcing the system to recognize the device. I have the very same issues and tv tuner as you but I'm not quite sure how to perform the steps you mention. The one big problem I have is that my computer does not see the tv tuner card therefore I have no idea where to place the drivers. I even took the card out shut down, rebooted shut down and reinstalled the card and the computer still did not recognize the tv tuner card. Last edited by Victorious1; 01-10-2008 at 03:14 PM.. |

| Re: Theatre 550 Pro Driver issues with Vista 32 bit I would also be interested in this but fear that we may find that quite simple the tv tuner is just not supported in windows vista. Although a third party program called beyond tv will work!? |
