Hi, I own a Freecom Hybrid DVB-T USB Stick which used to work fine (Was able to see TV), unfortunately since I installed SP3 for Windows XP I always get following annoying message on startup when plugging in the DVB-T USB Stick: An unhandled win32 exception occured in ehrecvr.exe The message keeps popping up every 5 seconds, until I disconnect the USB Stick. When I check the event viewer following error message is generated by the Media Center Receiver service: TV Tuner Malfunction. (0x80040265) TridVid Tv Tuner I found comments of people who experienced the same problem, but nowhere a decent solution... apperently one or more KB's is causing problems: http://freakokalam.blogspot.com/2007/02/media-center-crashes-ehrecvrexe.html It seems that some fixes which were part of "Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 RU2" are reverted when you install service pack 3: http://forum.team-mediaportal.com/g...ner-issue-channel-scan-crash-windows-xp-6344/ I tried all different kind of things, but nothing seems to work. Maybe you guys can give me a hand. Thanks in advance!

Is the device supported in SP3? Was the device connected to the computer when you installed SP3 *and then all of the August 2010 updates*? Why did you wait until WinXP SP2 was no longer supported before you installed SP3? What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)? What third-party firewall (if any)? Were any of these applications running in the background when you installed SP3? Has a(nother) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the computer? Did a Norton or McAfee free-trial come preinstalled on the computer when you bought it? (Doesn't matter if you never used or Activated it.)

I already reinstalled the playback software several times without any success. I got bored one day and thought by myself 'hey, let's install that great sp3 finally' but I wish I never had. I think the USB-device was indeed connected when I installed sp3, can this have caused the problem? Norton has been installed in the past, but removed it longtime ago using the Norton Removal Tool. I'm not the only one who can't watch TV any longer after installing sp3, but there's no decent solution for this problem.
We have no idea WTF you're talking about or to whom you're replying. To keep track of things, it helps immensely if you quote all of the previous message(s) in your replies to the newsgroup. Thank you.
