Ordered the Ceton infinititv 4. When I pull the 2 ATI tuner cards do i need to uninstall any drivers or ATI software that may conflict with the ceton card?

But you will have to go through TV Setup again.

If you have tuning adapters for the ATI devices you will find that you need to disable the old TA service. If you do it before you install the InfiniTV4 it'll make it easier to find it. Just go to Services and look for the tuning adapter service and then double click on it and change the start up action to disabled.

Will help you out in the long run. If you don't have SDV, then everything is good.

If you are using Tuning Adapters, you may want to disable the TA service for the ATI (I believe it's called OCUR SDV). Otherwise, there's nothing special you should need to do.

Thanks folks appreciate the help.....I'm on cablevision long island so I assume I will need 1 TA on the ceton right?

Do I re enable that service once the ceton is installed or will that happen automatically once the TA is hooked up?

No you leave that service disabled. The Ceton installs its own TA service (which is much better and actually works compared to the ATI DCT TA service). It's just easier to leave it disabled than try and dig it out and edit the registry, etc.
