Medion MD 8850

[Taquito]

I have just bought a medion 8850 with windows 7 home premium in German. I upgraded to ultimate English and now when I try to install live TV it says TV tuner not detected. I went to medion site and downloaded the drivers. When I try to trouble shoot it says Coprocessor driver not found Multimedia controller driver not found Network controller driver not found. I tried repair and used browse to get to the downloaded files but still get tha same results. When I try to open the downloaded drivers files I do not know how to install them. Can anyone help.

I do not know how to install them.

Hi.

Go to the device manager and right click on the card. Update driver software. Browse my computer. Let me pick. Have disk. Browse.

Find and double click on the .inf. Click ok. Click next. It will now install.

Reboot if necessary.

The .inf will be where you extacted the installer to. You can usually do that by running the .exe.

Unfortunately there is no .inf or .exe in the downloaded files and windows cant find the drivers. I downloaded them again but still the same. I even asked it to run thr download instead of saving but it seems to save automatically

I have a Medion 8850 as well....

What I recommend before you install too much software is to make a system backup.
It takes about 3 dvds on windows 7 to do a nice system backup. I tried it and it works great even you change the partition structure it repartitions everything back to the original layout.

There is a french website which can generate a profile of your computer (2 pages worth after installing the manual download)
Detect my configuration - - Ma-Config.com

a nifty website if I must say.
Windows 7 does have some nice features.
Medion put 4 primary partitions (2 hidden) which is the maximum and makes it
tricky to multiboot with XP

Also don't count on the Medion recovery disk if you have a major problem.
That's why I recommend you use W7 to make a SYSTEM BACKUP.

I also feel that it is useful to have atleast two logon identities for your W7 computer both with full administrator access incase one gets corrupted then you won't be able to get back in.


I have been trying to get XP drivers to run the 8850 medion.
The only 2 drivers I have trouble getting hold of are the
1) multimedia driver
(philips semiconductor TV tuner I think) and the
2) vga driver (eturbotouch technology inc touchscreen 21.5 inch)
any help for XP drivers would be greatly appreciated

Give this a try

Once you have downloaded the appropriate driver install it.
In XP I go into system device manager and select the device "multimedia controller" then install the driver , select multimedia controller device and right click and update driver.
If it installs correctly like it did on my medion 8850 then the creatix device will say something like SAA7231 Hybrid Capture Device installed. Voir-la

In helping you I was fortunate to look at my second medion 8850 and found the creatix website so problem 1 of mine is now solved ... Thanks ! hELPING OTHERS DOES HELP YOU !
