Vista Ultimate Media Center - Message - "Tuner Not Found"

*** 2nd Post ***
After some Windows updates run on my PC on the 14th Feb 2008, my Media
Centre has failed with the message "Tuner Not Found". It's been 3 weeks
without any working "solutions".

I believe it is possible to do with the latest Cumulative Update for Media
Center for Windows Vista (KB947172) as I am finding this "Tuner Not Found"
.... complaint everywhere since then. I d/loaded & installed this update on
Thursday evening 14th Feb 2008 and have had this problem only since then.
I am in the process of seeking a solution.... so far all I am finding is a
lot of ill-informed guesswork from perhaps too well-meaning people.

My PC is a Dell Dimension E-520 with Vista Ultimate 32 bit edition, and a
Dell oem AverMedia M779 Hybrid tuner card. See full hardware specs below. It
has been running fine since July 07, apart from some localised issues with
the Guide which have been resolved since December.

So far, and without success, I have:
1) Checked physical connection of the tuner card through to the TV antennae
point. Everything is fine and working. Device Manager indicates everything
is okay.
2) Restore failed, as previous restore point had been corrupted and not
fixed.
3) Un-installed the last relevant update (Cumulative Update for Media Center
for Windows Vista KB947172)... no change.
4) Turned-off firewall, re-installed update, switched firewall back on....
no change.
5) Uninstalled AverMedia drivers then reinstalled. No change
6) And as a last resort I have now Edited registry using regedit (and after
backup) and found this key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Curr entVersion\Media
Center\Service\Video\Tuners\{TunerID}
Deleted the tuners subkeys.
Checked Device Manager and removed the tv card drivers then restarted PC.
Upon restarting reinstalled the tv card drivers. I took note of the tuners
registered at the above key and made sure my tuners re-appeared under
TunerID.

Suggestions read in this and other forums include:
1) replace tuner card... pointless if working correctly (tested in another
pc)
2) Backup, re-format hdd and re-install Vista
do not answer the original problem. There should be no need for this after a
simple Windows update - surely?

Maybe I am wrong, but it occurs to me that if this latest Microsoft
Cummulative update appeared to have generated a lot of cries for help
globally, and it appears not directed at any particular hardware
configuration, and specifically any brand of tuner card, then the problem
must lie with the software including this latest update of changes made to
the registry as a result of it.....

I also have a brand new Dell Inspiron 1520 notebook pc with Vista Home
Premium & a Dell oem USB tuner. I have not downloaded the update to this
until I have fixed the Desktop PC and so far it continues to work correctly.
At this point I do not wish to risk stuffing around with having 2 pcs not
working correctly.

In the meantime, I shall continue my search. as their must be an answer.
Microsoft' s web-site has not yielded any glimmer of hope just yet. May be
someone from Dell or the community has experienced this and knows what the
fix is.

My system specs include:

Dell Dimension E520 model Dell DM061
Operating System: Microsoft® Windows VistaT Ultimate 32bit
BIOS: Version 2.2.0 Dated 01/16/07
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU E6600 @ 2.40GHz
RAM: 2GB (2 x 1024gb) Non ECC 667 DDR2
HDD: 320GB Western Digital x 2 (RAID1)
Optical Drives: PHILIPS DVD-ROM DROM6316 SATA2, Pioneer DVR-215 SATA2

(Video Capture)
Audio: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Extreme Music

ciao ciao

Can you play a DVD using MC?
Can you play a DVD or recorded TV program using Media Player?
Can you play any recorded programs including the samples?

Re: Vista Ultimate Media Center - Message - "Tuner Not Found"

Same question on the DRM also. I have the same problem after adding a Dvico
FusionHDTV Express card to my Vista Ultimate 64 bit PC. Works fine with the
Dvico software but gets "Tuner not found" in MCE.
