TBS-6220 PCI-Express compatibility issues

TBS-6220 PCI-Express compatibility issues

Postby korobass » Thu Mar 02, 2017 4:13 am

Hello all interested in pci-express compatibility issues.

I've bought recently card TBS 6220 DVB-T/T2 and was really suprised that it hasn't being recognized by hp 6300 pro based on i3.
As i had similar issue with my previous tuner card which was hauppauge wintv-hvr-1200 i just check tbs card in another pc and as i suspected it has been recognized.

However didn't know what is the exact issue with it until i found out this forum thread and figured out that there are different versions of PCI-E slots and TBS at least model that i bought is based on version 1.

Anyway i started digging around and hadn't found any resolution of my issue. Upgrading BIOS on hp 6300 didn't help.

If you have any idea what else can be done to make it working on my PC i will be much appreciated.

Below is specifications of two PC HP SFF box on which i had tried the TBS 6220 tuner.

I've even created separate thread on HP forum but don't expect they will release a new version of BIOS.

For reference below is the link:
