REVIEW BY: Sheun Reviewed  Oct 22, 2007
It works, whether on MCE or their own AP it works. To be honest, I wouldn't sweat too much about that Analog to Digital TV timing forcast. By 2009, they'll have to postpone again, unless the government really set their food down, which I doubt they will. They are too busy with Iraq and Afghan!!

REVIEW BY: Alex Reviewed  Jul 08, 2007
PROS: TV and FM Radio tuner. Works with Media Center (not outside Media Center.) Some work in Vista, some work only in MC. This one works flawlessly in VISTA MEDIA CENTER! It was up and running in under 10 mins. Picked this baby up at a Tiger Outlet store in Miami. TV quality is average for a PC tuner (grainy at times), but FM radio quality is OUTSTANDING! CONS: Coaxial connection is set kinda far back, no way to screw in coaxial cable, need one of those ''just push in'' types. Doesn't work outisde Media Center, so can't use in XP Home (dual-boot). THOUGHTS: I believe this is only analog (NTSC), not ATSC (digital) (which is supposed to replace NTSC in 2009, so may have to buy a new card then.

REVIEW BY: Naples Mar Reviewed  Jun 29, 2007
Well I hope this doesn't reflect on KWorld but it's not Vista ready. i finally got a response from Kworld and they said ''We are waiting on a patch file for Vista. Make sure you have a video card with plenty of its own memory.'' Also I thought I was buying this cause I didn't have a video card. My Allinwonder would not work.

REVIEW BY: Rickster Reviewed  Jun 23, 2007
I've been unable to use this with Vista. There is no Vista driver. I've e-mailed Kworld with no results. Will send it back soon if no driver is available. Frustrated.

REVIEW BY: Bferd Reviewed  May 27, 2007
This card is not vista ready! The drivers from KWORLD do not work. Software on the disk does not install. Multiple attempts to contact KWORLD technical support finally resulted in one vague email stating that their QT department was testing drivers for Vista.

What You Should Know

CONSUMER ALERT
This television receiver has only an analog broadcast tuner and will require a converter box after February 17, 2009, to receive over-the-air broadcasts with an antenna because of the Nation’s transition to digital broadcasting. Analog-only TVs should continue to work as before with cable and satellite TV services, gaming consoles, VCRs, DVD players, and similar products.

For more information, call the Federal Communications Commission at 1-888-225-5322 (TTY: 1-888-835-5322) or visit the Commission’s digital television website at: www.dtv.gov

PCI Express - Delivering Dramatically Improved Graphics
Doubling the bandwidth of the AGP 8X graphics bus, the new PCI Express represents the most profound change to desktop architecture in nearly a decade. PCI Express replaces AGP, allowing much larger amounts of data to move between the graphics card and the CPU, and will soon replace PCI expansion slots as well. The PCI standard allows for a 32-bit bus with a maximum throughput of 133MB/s. By contrast, PCI Express will run at 2.5GHz. PCI Express is a two-way serial connection that carries data in packets along two pairs of point-to-point data lines, compared to the single parallel data bus of traditional PCI. Gamers will benefit from an incredible upgrade in video quality with PCI Express, because it will allow for more powerful video cards, inspiring developers to create more realistic environments that will make games come alive with astonishingly lifelike colors and images. Video enthusiasts will also benefit because PCI Express will accommodate higher-quality video throughput (amount of data you can send per second). As network television moves over to HDTV broadcasts, PCI Express positions the PC platform for integration into the living room, while also allowing for HD video editing and other bandwidth-intensive tasks. PCI Express is compatible with existing PCI drivers and software operating systems and is designed to co-exist with current PCI hardware.
