  • Fixing the HD PVR BSOD

    A while back when messing around with AnyDVD , I started getting a BSOD (0x0000007e) whenever the HD PVR was connected to my HTPC. I had to send my HD PVR away for a while (it was locking up periodically), so I didn't get a chance to look into it too much. When it came back, I plugged it in and installed...

  • Initial HD PVR Thoughts

    - I wasn't expecting it to be so big, not an issue, just surprised. - Took a lot more effort to get it working with Sage than I was expecting (I should have read the Sage forums first :)). I had to uninstall Sage (which to be fair was a 6.3.10 -> 6.4.5 -> 6.4.6 migration) then install again...
