    PCTV Stereo crashes on my 64bit system

    Hi,

     I've got a problem with my tiny little old PCTV Stereo. I used to have a AMD Athlon 2400+ with 32bit architecture and Windows XP Pro on it. With this configuration, my PCTV worked fine. A few months ago I've bought a totally new config (Athlon 64 X2 6000+ with 64bit architecture) and try to start using Win XP Pro 64, but I couldn't because PCTV Stereo won't work with this system (successfully installed and tested, but when I launched Vision, my computer crashed - only power and reset buttons was functioning). I've spent a day with error searching and find out, that in BIOS I've to change PCI frequency timer from 64 to 32 and installing the good old XP Pro 32. After restarting with this setting, PCTV Vision started working fine. But only for a while... From that time, my computer crashes from time to time with random intervals (sometimes it works for a week without errors, sometimes it crashes 2times in 10 minutes). The symptomes are the same as in the beginning: vision starts, works for a while and then comes the crash, and only power or reset can resolve the problem. The difference is: the sound of the TV keeps going...

    I've tried to look after other hardware problems, but after several mem and hardware test, I found nothing... Do you have any idea of what can be the problem?

     Thanks,
    Attila

    P.S.: My PC config can be found on my profile sheet. (3,5GB of RAM means 4GB physical RAM, but due to 32bit limitations, it's only 3,5GB usable...)
