How to configurate my TV tuner?

I have TV tuner Philips SAA7131 on my new Vista ultimate and I have problems
with driver. When I open device manager it shows unknown device, in
properties of that device I can see - (Location: on SAA7131 TV Card - Video
Capture, Device status: This device is not configured correctly. (Code 1)
There is no driver selected for the device information set or element.) When
I try to reinstall driver online or from disc it don't change situation.
But that missing driver I can found in sound devices and its showing , that
it's working fine, bet my tv tuner is not working.

What can I do to alive my tv tuner? I think if my Vista can recognize it,
than it must work.

It will not work as long as it's an unknown device, and you can't make it a
known device without drivers. You'll need to get them from Philips and
install them according to their instructions.
