    after 2 and a half months...i decided to watch the tv on my laptop....but when i opened the acerarcade software the tv card option has disappeared and when i use the shortcut button it says "no tv device." the only thing i have changed recently is my graphics card driver from 94....to 169.04. could this be why my tv card no longer exists?? or is it something else that may have caused it.... :confused:

    would a change in graphics card driver cause the tv card to not work...or are they both unrelated would not affect each other??

    anyone....

    The first thing I would try is to reinstall the driver for the TV card. I would remove both the previous driver, as well as the acerarcade software, and then reinstall both.
