Hi all :)

 

Many years ago I had a SkyStar 2, working perfectly in my PC.

Now it was time to enovate for a SkyStar 2 eXpress HD.

Already instaled like all hradware must, and used the incoming CD for the drivers, but, doenst wirk!

Tried in windows 7 32 bits, and in win 7 64 bits, and still not geting to work!

I m shore the antena is at Hotbird, and it is at perfect condiction.

I think its an software problem!

 

Can anyone help me ??

I had the same problem, but I cannot remember exactly the solution :unsure: . I think there should be two devices in the device manager, one,

 

TechniSat DVB-PC Virtual Network Adapter in "Network Adapters"

 

and the second,

 

TechniSat Skystar 2 eXpress HD in "Sound, video and game controllers"

 

I think when I first installed, the Virtual Network Adapter was not detected, and showed with a yellow exclamation mark in device manager. You need to add driver, point it to SkyNETVirtualNetwork.inf in the Technisat driver folder, it should install. There should be a round tray icon, TechniSat DVB Receiver, with a picture of a satellite, it should show green if a satellite signal is detected (red if not). Restart.

 

In DVBViewer hardware settings Scan Devices. It should show two devices:

 

Skystar 2 eXpress HD

 

and

 

TechniSat BDA Digital Tuner

 

Select "do not use" for Skystar 2 eXpress HD as it is for satellite DSL. Hopefully, then it all should work :rolleyes: .

Hi,

 

many tanhks for you very good atention :)

 

Well, it is everything like u described.

But just can make it work with the software DvB Dream !

After instal it came working fine. Still not workin with the original DvB software, and so also with Prog DvB, one of my best some years ago :)

It´s to bad for this Board, because in the old PCi version, there was no problem at all configuring it!

I going to try in WIndows XP, just for acknowledge :)

Did you use the DVBViewer TE that came with the card? It is very outdated, I would recommend buying the latest version, it works fine for me. You do have to make sure to select "do not use" for Skystar 2 eXpress HD in DVBViewer hardware settings, or it will conflict and nothing works.
