I've got two of these cards, one at home, one at work. It's the work one that's giving me grief.
I've just tried my home one with exactly the same linux/dvb setup and it works fine, correctly
registering the frontend (LSI L64781).
AFAIK the two cards are identical, but I'll try my home card in the work PC tomorrow. It could
be a hardware fault on the work card.
Never been tried with Windows, but both these cards have served me well, literally for years
with much older versions of the Linux DVB drivers, although the work one hasn't been used
for many months now, so it could be a hardware thing.
Best wishes.
Stuart
