TBS6280 incompatible with ASRock Z77E-ITX

TBS6280 incompatible with ASRock Z77E-ITX

Postby Sotamarsu » Tue Sep 11, 2012 5:04 pm

Hi

I just got ASRock Z77E-ITX motherboard to my test bench and got it working nicely except one thing. The machine won't detect TBS6280 TV Tuner Card. The device won't come to Windows 7 device manager. I have updated BIOS to 1.30 and tried it with different settings, but it's still not working.

This problem is the PCI-E 1.0a compatible problem and someone at TBS should contact Asus and ASRock immediately.

TV Tuner Card is working with Dell Optiplex GX620 and ASUS P8Z77-V Deluxe. It isn't working with ASUS E45M1-I Deluxe (BIOS 0306) and now ASRock Z77E-ITX (BIOS 1.10 and 1.30).

EDIT: I can confirm that TBS6280 is working with Asus Maximus V Gene (in PCI-E x16 and x4) and ASRock Z77 Extreme4 (in PCI-E x1)

Hi Sotamarsu

Thanks for your share.
and we have got the news that Intel has updated the BIOS to support PCI-E 1.0a.
So maybe next time other mainboard will update the BIOS too. :)

Kind Regards

I've asrock h77m-itx (with the latest bios version 1.30) and tbs6280 and I've the same problem.
I've contacted asrock support and 1 day later they have send to me a new bios (1.40a).
It appears to be working.

Hi Piccio
I have not found the 1.40a BIOS on Asrock website.
You can confirm to me that this resolves the problem with TBS6280
Is it possible for you to post a link to this new bios for us to download it.

Thank you
Best regards

Hi.

I have two Z68M-ITX/HT by ASRock motherboards and cannot get the 6280 to work in either of them. They both have the latest Bios update of 2.40. I have tried two new 6280's in both boards and with both windows 7 and windows 8 - they don't even show up in device manager.

I have a Blackgold tuner which is also PCI-e and that does work fine in the slot. So that means that this board has an issue with this card.

Can someone please post me a bios update for my board that supports this? ASRock are closed for the new year for two weeks!

Thanks.

Similar issue (self inflicted but annoying)
ASROCK B85M-ITS with TBS6285 , was running BIOS 1.30 (probably originally shipped with MB)

Card was working perfectly for 12months or more; in Ubuntu with TVHeadend

got clever and upgraded to BIOS 2.5 last night and now the card doesn't appear as a PCIe device. "cat /proc/interrupts" shows nothing for the SAA chip.

can't revert to 1.30 as ASRock site now only has 1.40. Even tried BETA 2.70 and still nothing..

:(

any bright ideas?
