Suspend/Resume problem with Skystar2 WinXP SP3

[aydan]

Hi,

 

After installing WinXPSP3 on my system I started having a few problems (ran W2k before and everything DVBV related worked fine).

The problem being that the Skystar sometimes doesn't work after resuming from hibernation. Just now it would record an empty file and not tune any channels. So I decativated/reactivated the device in the device manager et voila it works again.

Strange thing is I never had such problems with W2k.

 

Has anybody else had such problems and maybe a solution?

 

Thanks

Aydan

 

PS: My Skystar is 5 years old now. So maybe the XP drivers have a revision issue?

Go in the driver options (via Control Panel) on the last page (energy management) and disable the option PC can switch of the Device (i am not sure about the exact English names). This should help.

I had the same issue and can confim that unchecking the option did fix it.

Seems to work.

Is there a vista option to do this as I have the same issue and no power managment tab on the device properties
