Talk, Rumors, X Versus Y The smell of newly purchased stuff... So, there I was, Hauppauge WinTV board in hand, Mandrake 10 installed and ready to rock! Little did I expect that it would come to this. But first things first.

Nope. The card isn't broken. It works under Linux and installed under Linux fine. It works under Windows but cannot be used to install XP. The card is an Nvidia 5700 Ultra. Same thing for SATA. There are no drivers for SATA that come with XP. There's no argument in that. Sorry.

What are the specs? You mentioned almost nothing. What is the maker of the Nvidia 5700 Ultra card? What's your motherboard (Chipset, maker, etc...)?

I have an MSI Nvidia 5200 card and the drivers are not included on the XP CD but one trip to WindowsUpdate and the problem is gone.
