Re: Vista does not boot if I add the WinTV card (or the PCTV Card)

Well... here is the interesting issue, Vista does not boot even in "Safe Mode".
when I try it, I see crcdisk.sys as last driver to be loaded, then it hangs.

The BIOS release is not the "last" one, but it supports Vista for sure.

Is there any log or troubleshooting info I can check on the PC.
For example, how do I now which driver gets loaded after crcdisk.sys?
Maybe that driver is the issue.

Thanks
