    I have`nt got one but I checked up on one, reviews etc, and apparently it`s a load of crap, I got an Avertv studio 203 and it`s ok tho`I think a Leadtek winfast 2000Xp might have been a better bet, circa £39 stg.

    I got one from komplett, but had to send it back, beacuse MSI/komplett couldn't fix my problems. Radio never worked, TV hung on startup 2 out of 3 times, and picture was always in black and white regardless of source and broadcast settings.

    I don't know if that was a Win XP (with and w/o SP1) problem, a multiple monitor/graphics card problem, or just a plain does not work! Either way it went back in favour of a Hauppage WinTV which works perfectly bar sometimes when the radio mutes all by itself after a few seconds (a system restart seems to sort that though).

    I have one - from komplett. Piece of crap really. By piece of crap I mean the hardware is very good - but the drivers and software are really shoddy. There's new drivers on the MSI site now. They do work better. I have it working under WXP.

    I wouldn;t recommend it though. More hassle than its worth.

    Just to further ensure you that you've made the right choice. I bought one during the summer from Komplett and had to send it back 3 times before he finally gave up and said that it was probably just a bad batch.

    Its really crap tbh but then I never managed to get it working.
