    I bought an ATI HDTV Wonder TV tuner card. It is PCI. The system recognizes the new hardware, but the driver won't load from the CD or the downloaded driver from the ATI website. I have an new MSI motherboard, Windows XP SP 1, AMD Athlon 64 bit 3000+ CPU, 1 gig of RAM, MSI nvidia 5900XT graphics card, 140 gigs of hard drive and a 450 watt power supply. I've tried this card in all PCI slots. The system seems to be void of any graphics drivers other than those for the AGP video card. Any Ideas?

    I'd start with updating your XP with Service Pack 2. I'm assuming you have internet access since you said the drive won't install even if it's downloaded. I don't know the added features of SP2 over SP1 but it's always good to be up to date on your software. At least this gives you a starting point.

    Thanks for the advise, but I downloaded SP 2 on my other motherboard. I created so much software turmoil I had to format my hd and reinstall the OS. I'm a little gunshy of SP2 right now. I might do it as a last resort.
