How do you fix a tv tuner card in motherboard?
1. Choose a TV Tuner Card that will work with your computer. There are two basic types: a PCI/PCI-E (PCI Express, it's a computer expansion card standard designed to replace the older PCI bus standards.) card that is internally installed and an external Tuner Card with a USB plug. Get a card that receives HD satellite signals (though a basic analog Tuner Card can still work). 2. Install the card to your computer. For a PCI/PCI-E card, open your computer case and insert the card into an available PCI/PCI-E slot, which is located near the motherboard's base. For an external card, just plug it into a USB port. 3. Connect your satellite receiver box to the computer through the Tuner Card. The card will have an RF coaxial and/or RCA composite ports. Disconnect the receiver box's output from your TV and connect it to the card with a coaxial or RCA cable. 4. Turn the computer on. You will likely get a pop-up for the new hardware you installed. Insert the CD-ROM that came with the card and run the enclosed software. This will install the drivers needed for your operating system to run the card. 5. Start up the TV Tuner program, which you installed in the CD software's last step. If your satellite TV antenna is working and the cable is properly connected, the satellite TV broadcast will appear on the program's screen.
