Media Center with Vista doesn't play TV or Videos

[Guest]

I got a strange problem with Media Center. I had Windows MCE 2005 installed
and everything worked fine. After upgrading to Vista I can record videos and
play them (as well as the old recordings) in media player; Live TV and
watching any video in media center doesn't work.

Hauppauge TV Card and ATI Radeon is installed, Vista Certified PC, all
hardware has been found correctly by vista. Upgrade to RC1 has been pretty
smooth so far.

Any ideas how to get media center playing TV / Video?

Vista RC1 - Build 5600

Apart from this tiny problem it runs so smooth!

Media Center works fine on this setup of RC1. Did you do a clean install?
Have you run the Media Center setup? Try clicking on Start/Windows Media
Center.

Player. Same with old recordings, works finde, MP3 Works perfect; only
