| Post subject: | PVR 250 Problem |
Machine: Chaintech 7NIF2 Athlon 2500+ 512 mb Ram PVR-250 I had Knoppmyth running for about a week, once I changed the tuner type to 39, I was able to view video. It crashed one day and upon reboot it said. Code: msp3410: daemon started
and it just sits there unresponsive. I tried recompiling ivtv using the info in the wiki. (Thanks for that XSecrets) I tried a new auto install of R4v4.1 and it keeps hanging in the same spot. Removing the card allows knoppmyth to come up. I am at a loss on what to do. Any ideas anyone? I dont work very far from Hauppague. Perhaps I can throw the card through there window? On a serious note, has anyone ever contacted them? Are they helpfull? |

I'd suggest trying the IvyTV mailing list. |

*UPDATE* I popped the card into a win2k box and the OEM drivers would not load either. I called Hauppauge and spoke with them and explained the issues and he said it sounds like the card is bad. Since they are about 25 miles away, they said I can drive the card over this week for an immediate swap. 
Now I wish I didnt reinstall Knoppmyth from scratch..... as now I must start all over.

Why would you?Since I dont really know what I am doing in the Linux/Knoppmyth environment, when I could not find an answer to the problem I was having (indeed a google search of: msp3410 deamon started + hard lock returns almost nothing of value) I figured that an immediate solution would be to start a new install and try again. Unfortunatly for me, after going through the install it crashed at the same point on the first boot. On the bright side, I have learned much from my repeated installations, and from my forced searches through the forums and for that I thank you all. Here we go again. BTW if I go ahead and reinstall sans pvr card, will it be detected and setup when I add it in, or will I have to give my keyboard an extra mashing to get it working? |

If there is nothing wrong with the card and it is well seated in the PCI slot, then yes it should be detected. |

OK I paid Hauppague a little visit yesterday in order to swap my card out. They seem like a bunch of cool cats and everyone was nice enough. They handed me a new card and I was off! This sure beats waiting and paying for shipping! If you live on Long Island and have trouble with a Hauppague product, its faster to just go there..... |

I have the exact same problem with it locking up after msp3410: daemon started. It is a fresh install of R4V4 because my 250 was supposed to not work (and didnt) with R4.1. Now it just sits there, but it was working fine with sagetv/WinXP Pro. Anyone have any ideas on what to try? Biostar M7NCG400 Athlon 1600+ 2 x PVR-250 Onboard everything Wireless USB |

Why is that? After replacing the card my PVR-250 works great out of the box with R4V4.1. |
