Hyper Threading and TV Tuner cards

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.video (More info?)

I have just purchased a new computer that has Hyper
Threading. When I installed my TV Tuner Card it crashes
the system. I have purchased three different cards and
they all do the same thing. The computer is a HP and I
was told that the card will not work with HT. Any
suggestions?

You need to call Microsoft and they will send you an email with a link to
fix the problem.

Try turning HyperThreading off in your BIOS.
To access your BIOS, you normally press Delete or F2 when the computer is
starting up.

Now that would be really silly..... they've spent $s on a HT CPU and you're
telling him to turn it off?.... when there is a fix!!!!!

Does anyone have that pacth? Microsoft will not send it
because I bought the machine from HP and HP does not have
the patch yet?
