Hi Bob, I also purchased the WinTV-go card a while back, ended up returning because I couldn't get to work. Same problem (locking up system), tried all different kinds of confiurations with no success. I then purchased the WinTV-pci and had no problems. Worked on the first boot, I still am capturing video till this day... Troy
