Anyway my problem is that having installed the Detonator 2 drivers (5.22), whenever i run hauppauge wintv, win2k drops to a blue screen of death, performs a memory dump, and takes about 3 days to reboot.
Would the SOF fix do any use? (i dont really want to try it since others have had probs with it)
thx in advance,

More likely than not an improper driver install, not WinTV problem... no problems here.
