PVR 150 and windows 7 64 bit

[ScottinIndy]

Has anyone had any luck getting drivers to work for the PVR 150 with windows 7 64 bit? On Hauggpauge's web site it says it will not work with 4 gigs of memory installed and I was just curious if anyone had found a work around. I sure don't want to pull a stick of memory to run my TV tuner card.
Thanks in advance for any input..

No direct help, but I didn't even know these were supported in W7 of any flavor! This is news to me :) Thanks!

I had to load up an old Hauppage card from the same era as yours onto win7 64bit the other day, and the MCE2005 driver (basically xp) worked for me. I was only using 3gb of ram though.

Just wanted to update, I got my PVR 150 working with Windows 7 64bit and kept my 4 gigs of Ram, Pretty simple work around. Go to Msconfig/Boot/Advanced options, If using 4 gigs of Ram like me, Change max memory from 4096 to 4095, Hit apply then OK.
Found this after lot's of searching, Like I said it worked for me on my older Haupaugge card and perhaps it can help someone else with an older card as well.

I never even knew there was an issue with this card when I installed Win7 64bit. It used the windows driver and everything worked right away. I only found out later that the 4gb limit existed. I've heard people run into trouble when they actually install the Hauppauge driver, though and I would stick with the oem one included with Windows 7

Sure didn't work for me, Windows detected the card but said it couldn't find drivers.
