    GIGABYTE GT-P5100 problem


    hello,i have GT-P5100,hm,and a problem...
    i attached the TV card to the computer properly,also the cable to the TV card,properly...
    I have installed ALL the software/drivers from the CD that came in the package,and the problem was there...next I also installed the latest software/drivers from the GIGABYTE site and the problem still exists...

    problem :

    when i go to "auto scan" and it finishes,giving me around 200 channels ,and when i acctually want to watch TV -.- there is no video...yes...only sound,no video...

    ONLY a top,horizontal 1pixel long row of the actual image i should be getting...
    here is the picture.. :


    system specs:
    ati radeon hd 3650 graphic card
    2 gb ram memory
    MSI mother board
    dual core amd athlon x2 ,2600MHz 5000+




    nowhere have I found a solution to my problem...and the" delete existing drivers and install new ones" didn't work for me...
    I have sent a ticket to GIGABYTE and still no answer...

    please help me ?:/

    It seems to me that it might be a hardware issue. When did you send the ticket to GB?

    Hello...

    I hope I can help you... :)

    You can try a few things to make your card work... video & sound together !

    First, I think you have picture, indeed, but it is totally dark (black).
    If you click on video tab in settings options in Presto PVR utility, you'll see that all options are "greyed"... non-adjustable. Try to find somewhere little prog named "Enable Button 1.1" and try to unlock this options and now... try to raise brightness, contrast to see picture as it should be.

    If first "trick" doesn't work for you... try to uninstall Presto PVR... and before you install again (but make sure you have latest driver installed and latest PVR version ready for install), right click on setup.exe of PVR and tick "RUN AS ADMINISTATOR" in compatibility tab.

    I hope it will help....

    I'm waiting for your reply.

    Good luck.

    Very good... it's all right now, at last... :)

    So, picture on most TV tuners is worse than picture on most TVs, unfortunately.

    There is many reasons for that... it's a long story.

    Bratski pozdrav, brate Srbine.
