OK, I know bugger all about TV Cards but I am fixing a computer just now and none of the generic (temporary) windows drivers work, looked at the card properly and it uses a 3Dpro SiS Chipset and has a 'TV out' port and a 'DV out' socket as well (the same connection as I have on my Sony Handycam). Can't find any drivers although the woman who owns the computer said that Diamond Technology rings a bell.

Can't find any serial or model numbers but I was wondering if anyone has any ideas of what the driver could be or where to look.

Cheers in Advance
Stuart!

Could try here,

www.driverzone.com/video.html

It was difficult despite all that info you supplied
Are you sure there's nothing obvious witten on the card?
Are you still in VGA (safe Windows) mode, is there anything obvious in the prog files directory?

Sorry, Tell a lie, the Generic VGA driver is working, but only in 600x400x16!

I'll check out that site!

Pull the card. Look for a number on the graphics chip and then go here...
