Problem installing Hauppauge Win TV-HVR 4000

Windows Vista

I’ve installed Win TV-HVR 4000 on all vista versions and found one that it only worked with vista that supports media center. Here is a link that shows the features for different vista versions http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windows-vista/compare-editions/default.aspx.

So Win TV-HVR 4000 works on two vista versions:

1. Home Premium.
2. Ultimate.

Windows XP

After installing WinTV7 and the program hangs when searching for channels. To solve this problem do the following:

1. After you start WinTV7 and before you search for channels, right-click on “Taskbar” and choose “Task Manager”, under “Applications” tab select “WinTV7” and right click on it & choose “Go To Process”, it will open “Processes” tab and the “WinTV7.exe” is selected. 
2. Now, right click on it & choose  “Set Priority” then choose “High”, a message box will shows to ask you if you really want to change the priority, choose “Yes”/”ChangePriority”. Then Close “Task Manager”
3. Return to WinTV7 and start searching for channels & it should work.
