The Leadtek tuner card worked just fine under W98SE, and XP, but when I tried to install driver under Win2000, I encountered several problems...

First, Windows don't show any type of device which should be installed for found multimedia video controller after I select "wf2kTunr.inf" file required..

Then if I try to install it via "Sound, video, and game controllers-> manufacturer, Leadtek Research Inc. suddenly appears in manufacturer list... I select model "WinFast TV2000 XP WDM TVTuner", the driver starts to load, and at about 99% it crashes, and system reboots...
Before enering Windows, the message apears saying is could not load some sys file related to tv tuner?!

I thought it was driver problem (original cd from Leadtek too old?), but problem stays with new downloaded drivers..). There aren't drivers for different Win platforms, just one for all (very smooth).

The permision for PCI on HKEY_LOKAL_MACHINE on Local Machine are set to "read" and "full controll" allow both, so this isn't part of the problem.

Direct X 9.0 is installed before anything above, so upgrading from 8.1 couldn't be a problem too...

And the last, just for reference, the system is HP Vectra VL400, w PIII, 512MB Ram, matrox millenium g550 with 32MB ram...

I had a the same problem just recently, ok it is on a differant o/s win98se/soltek mobo/nvida gfk card/258mb memory but, i found that a recent upgrade of my via WDM driver had in part something to do with it so i repaced it with a older driver and it works to some degree,I have got a sound problem at the moment and trying to find a fix for that problem but i hope that this info is of use. try the BORG SOFTWARE (generic driver) or via WDM diver upgrade at windows update

Thanx 4 the tip!

I solved the problem with fresh install of XP... it was some win2000 driver issue I couldn't resolve....
