    PC TV PRO (PCI) Win7 / 64 bit drivers


    I have PC TV PRO (PCI) Pinnacle TV card and cannot find correct drivers.
    Device manager shows two nodes :
    + "Multimedia controller"
    + "Multimedia video controller"

    Does somebody know where to get correct files, i have original CD with XP drivers but even when installed in compatibility mode, card is not working.

    Thanx in advance !!
