Media Center Losing Signal

[BoulderBum]

Recently, whenever I try to view live TV, I can see the signal for about 30 seconds, then it becomes static.

If I restart the computer, I can get a signal for about the same time period, but then the problem re-occurs.

Any ideas what might be happening?

By "recently" do you mean that it has previously worked OK in Vista and that you have NOT, changed anything, updated anything etc. that might have caused it to stop working? If it use to work maybe System Restore can sort it out?

Apart from the above I don't know the answer but have a look through these. The Australian "Vista MediaCenter" forum, linked to in the first link is a good site specializing in Vista and MediaCenter, I don't know if any other site does this kind of thing (Vista + MediaCenter) similar to the Aussies, so it might be worth asking your question there too.
