The only reason I chose a dvico card 2 months ago was that I thought it was the only HD card available. I was stupid enough not to do a proper research, and I don't think these other tv cards (e.g. the Hauppauge one) seem to claim they are HD. Actually they do not say anything about HD or SD. Dvico was the only one that does claim HD in the ad and made me fall in the trap :-(

Yep, thats the exact symptom. Thats what I meant when I said I could predict a white screen. How funny is it when a whole advert is white and it returns to normal right when the next advert starts
No doubt you are aware of the follow up thread to this one -
Dvico...the stuttering...what you can do.
Want to stop being disappointed with your HTPC and start enjoying it? Then this is the card to get right now...
Hauppauge HVR-2200 - What a fantastic PCIe Dual Digital TV Tuner
It has no problems, awesome response from the many new users already (including myself

), and the best support you will find.
No disappearing second tuner! Drivers that work and will only be improved! Is soley designed to work in Media Center! And copes perfectly with my signal (my Dvico never did)!
I have a new found expectation of trouble free operation, and it gets delivered.
If it helps, I had my Express for 4 months and was allowed a refund. You have only had yours for 2. Either contact Hassan directly or just rock up to where you purchased it from and tell them it has technical faults and you would like a refund. They should be able to get authorization from Hassan through their sub distributor.
