[|Pippus|]

Hi everyone!
I've a little problem.
I've an Ati TV Wonder VE, and this system:
p2 350 mhz
380mb ram
windows xp professional
matrox g400 dual head
etc.

i've this problem:
installing the correct driver for my ati tv wonder, i tried to install the
multimedia center (mmc) 7.9, then the 8.9 and the 9.0, but when i've to make
the scan for the frequency to configure the video channel, the program don't
ask to me the region (i'm in italy and i've antenna as tv connection). so i
can't scan for channels.

last time i install this tv wonder (in windows xp, same condition) i was
able to configure it and watch tv!

and now?? what can i do?

thank a lot!!
and sorry for my bad english!

I am in US, so don't know if you have to install the DAO program as well.
When I installed 8.9 or 9.0, I just uninstalled previous MMC, then installed
new MMC. But, it did not work. So I uninstalled MMC, reinstalled DAO, then
installed MMC, and all is well.

Sounds like you may have installed DX9.0b, Pippus. It's really time
M$ put a warning about this on the DX9.0b download pages - it breaks
PAL and SECAM tuners.

There's a fix available from
