Sorry to hear your experience was poor, particularly after Black Gold joys.
I am running Vista 64 so thought I'd take a look at the Pinnacle site to see what they are saying to 64 bit support.
I was suprised to see no mention at all of the 7010 in the support section? Can you link me please?
Has anyone else had a positive experience with the card yet? Freesat kicks off on Tuesday and I am champing at the bit to enjoy it.
I gave up on Sky in November due to appauling customer service with their broadband earlier in 2007. I swopped broadband to Be There (who are flawless) and promised myself I wouldn't give Sky another penny of my money.
Since November I have had my hopes dashed by Blackgold and survived on 4od and iplayer.
A good pcie dual dvb-s card that runs on vista 64 is all I'm after, not much to ask you would think. Oh and if it can't handle S2, it needs to be sub £50!!
The Pinnacle seemed perfect... but sound like another piece of technology that will fail me.... grrr
I am surprised that this niche of computing is able to provide such below par products, no wonder sky aren't worried about providing support to manufacturers to integrate their product within htcps. Maybe now, in the eve of freesat, some manufacturer will realise that there is a massive gap in the market for a solid, out the box solution for DVB-S.
