Yeah, I remember you mentioning this in another thread
Assuming that it's not the obvious, i.e. the LED has died, then it almost certainly has to be a driver problem. The only solution is to find or wait for a patch or driver update from your system's or keyboard's manufacturer I'm afraid
Many Vista drivers are currently full of silly little bugs
Not that it'll be of any help but just out of interest, did you upgrade in-place from XP media center or do a fresh install? That might cause the problem you see, but obviously something so trivial wouldn't warrant a fresh install if everything else is working fine. It'd just be handy for me to know, that's all
Sorry I can't be of more help

Cyco, on my 3RD ! Capture card now. I bought this one for the laptop, and surprise surprise it doesn't work
I have installed drivers and software and got some brief moments when the TV Input worked, but nothing from the composite in ports. No sound or video. The ebay seller took an average 4 days to reply from each message, that conveniently made the product go out of the time allowed for returns.
I have tried using the video player on it aswell but nothing. The software is WinDVR.
So here we are again, any ideas ?

To be honest, I'd need to be in front of your laptop to help with this problem because I don't know where to start!
Have you had a look at the winDVR knowledge base
here?
Not sure if it'll be of any help but might be worth a look.
I'm trying to find some more info on the tuner card itself. It uses the phillips chipset so if I can dig anything out I'll let you know.
When you say the TV tuner worked for a while, what happened when it stopped working? Do you get any error messages like 'no signal' or 'no tuner present' or is it just a black screen?

tbh i cant remember although i think it was clean install :s
i got the disk free from moduslink and it just came as a disk and the documents in an envelope so not really sure...however the pc has totally died now, or maybe the charger. It had a low battery so i plugged into the charger but it wouldnt charge and then of course the battery died and now it wont turn on connected to the power or by itself as it has no battery left
