For cards which don't have an eeprom or we can't read the eeprom we will have to focus on the the output of the program sign and the driver already has the data structure and algorithm to accommodate such boards. We really need the following info so if you have win95 and have not send this info please do so. I think that the latest driver should be able to recognize properly all NTSC boards however the PAL users remain a little bit of problem right now. output of win95 hardware description for your bt848 card. on win95 click on : MyComputer->Control_Panel->System->Device_Manager(Tab) then click on Sound, video and game controllers click on Hauppauge WinCast/TV A Window pops up and it should be titled : Hauppauge WinCast/TV Properties Finally, click on the Tab Details I think that the latest driver should be able to recognize properly all NTSC boards however the PAL users remain a little bit of problem right now. I just need more data to differentiate among the popular PAL tuner parts.
