Channel scanning in Windows Media Center (VISTA)

Hello
I run Media Center, told him to work with cables and no Set-Top box,
and defined in the guide my location.
I see the TV Guide, I see the channels list, but i only see static
noise (snow...) on my screen.

Is there a way to manually scan for channels? Or have I done
something wrong?


Thanks
Dror

First thing to check is the coax connection, some tuner cards have multiple
coax connectors on the back, only one it the cable input.

Does that coax give you a good signal when plugged into a standard TV?

Are you sure the signal type is a match - i.e., it is an analog signal from
the cable company and you are plugging into an analog card?
