    Does anybody know if the HP ExpressCard Digital/Analog TV Tuner works with Windows XP 32/64-bit?

    Also, what are the card's HDTV capabilities?

    Thanks!

    Please guys,

    does nobody know if that thing is working with Windows XP? The auction for the card on eBay is ending soon.

    Also, on the HP website it says that the card is only compatible with HP Pavilion dv2000, dv5000, dv6000, dv8000 and dv9000; Compaq Presario V3000, V6000 models. Does that mean it wouldn't work with a Fujitsu, for example?

    I believe it will work on other laptops but there are better tuners than the HP one.

    Check the other ebay listings for it, i remember seeing one with detailed information

    Are you talking about the Avermedia cards? Those and the HPs are really the only ones that eBays lists under expresscard tv tuners.

    The HP Express Card tuner is made by Hauppauge, much like the WinTV-HVR-1500. The card is supposed to work with XP & Vista, both requires the Media Center. Not sure if Happauge's stand alone app will work with the HP version though.
