Since there is no way to post into the 6981 forum (no new topic button) I have to post here. Please fix the 6981 forums so I can post in the right place.
I received a 6981 yesterday and I have had no end of trouble trying to get it to work. I am running a fresh install of Windows 7 x64 Ultimate, 8GB ram I7-650 on a Asus P7P55D-E LX board.
In Device Manager I have the following Devices. I am not sure if there should be more since the Manual is for another card.
TBSViewer most of the time won't open up but sometimes after I run it and wait 5 minutes and open windows media center then it will open. Sometimes.
I also get this error comming up in it
I have also tried ProgDVB 6. When I install it I see the hardware.
When I follow the Manual and copy the BDA.Device into the Module directory I loose the hardware. I also can not get Windows Media Center to work with the card. I have had it tune in a station once via TBSViewer but no other software will work with the card. I have to do a scan each time with TBSViewer when I start it as it looses the settings or LNB info from the previous scan.
I have just put windows 7 x86 on and TBSViewer opens and plays much better. I setup media center and found the stations on the transponder but nothing will play in media center it says channel unavailable but it plays fine with TBSViewer.
It looks like some work needs to be done on TBSViewer for x64 configuration but I can't get any video on either x86 or x64 media center.
