Bingo! I had the same problem a few years back with two TwinHan VisionPlus cards and a 7200RPM drive in a small case (200W PSU). All was fine for 6mths, then one started to misbehave. Tried everything. Removing either card would give me a working setup. Bought a bigger PSU and case, and they have been rock solid ever since. I am guessing that part of the tuner on the card ages a little and is affected by marginal 12V power. Try getting a PSU with separate 12V regulation. -- Nigel Pearson, nigel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | "People say I'm strange, does it Telstra Dev. Lab, Sydney, Australia | make me a stranger?
