| | Media Center has Stopped Working I just bought a new ADS TV tuner for my Vista Ultimate computer with a Pentium D 3.0Gig processor. I have a geForce8500 video card with 512meg, loads of disk space, and 2 gig system ram. I have been unable to set up the tuner because Windows Media Center keeps crashing with the totally useless message, "Windows Media Center has Stopped Working." The only information in the event viewer is event ID 7034. There were several of these, as well as 7031's and 7032's. The TV card does say it is Vista compatible, and the drivers did appear to install. But that should not explain the problems with Media Center anyway. I have checked other discussion groups, and other people are reporting this same problem, but no one seems to have a solution. Can anyone help me here? TIA, Martin |

| | Re: Media Center has Stopped Working I just checked the ADS site, and there are no new drivers that I can see. The only tech help was to send a message to their technical assistance people. There weren't even any FAQs for this product.

| | Re: Media Center has Stopped Working I have not heard from tech help from ADS, which is somehow not surprising. But even if I do, I don't think they can help me with my WMC problem, which is still not working.

| | Re: Media Center has Stopped Working I bit the bullet: I went to the MS site and found a hotfix for WMC, KB936229. Downloaded and installed it, and it did absolutely nothing.
