Blackgold BGT-3620 Tuner Shows Black Screens

[deadspeak]

Hi Guys

Pick myself up one of these cards, running the lastest drivers all seem ok but get random black screens. does not matter what i'm doing could be watching tv, streaming an mkv ot blu-ray from my home server, and the screen will just go black, the HD seems to still being accessed and sometimes i can get the desktop back up but the system has ground to a hault. more often than not the only way to get out of this is to do a hard reset of the system. Could this be an issue with the integrated intel graphics?. The system ran flawlessly when i had my old nova t-500 installed.

Cheers
Paul

Just a random thought bubble - could it be increased power usage compared to the old card?

Maybe plug the PC into a power meter to see how much you're drawing?

I use a PicoPSU in a bedroom PC and used to have some weird random issues which turned out to be power related.

Probably not your issue but I thought I'd throw it into the ring....
