When I install the drivers for FlyVideo 3000 tv card on XP, it tells me after it has copied all the driver files across that there was a problem installing the hardware, and the reason being is "The data is Invalid". When I look at the device in control panel, it says the device isn't configured properly. This happens regardless of the set of drivers I use, can anyone tell me what is going on? I can't get DScaler to work either, so that's not an option.

I am having the same problem. If I figure it out i'll Re-post the solution.

This problem seems to be a Generic Registry issue and not specific to Flyvideo. I found a good explanation on via's website, tried it and it fixed the problem. Here is the link and a copy of the solution incase via take it down or move it. http://www.viahardware.com/faq/kt7/faqdrivers.html#datainvalid __________________________ Why do I get the message "data is invalid" when installing a device driver under WindowsXP? This error appears to be due to a protection problem in the Windows registry and can occur with a variety of drivers (sound cards and SCSI drivers have been reported). To fix this problem, go to Start, Run... and type "regedit" without the quotes to run the Registry Editor. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ENUM\PCI and you will see a number of keys of the form "VEN_xxxx", where xxxx are strings like "1102&DEV_0004&SUBSYS_00011103&REV_04". Under each of these folders will be another folder with a long numerical name. Open each folder and look for the "DeviceDesc" which matches the hardware you are trying to install. Right Click on the "VEN_xxxx" for that device and select 'Permissions' and then tick "Allow" for "Full Control". Close Regedit and then continue with the installation of your device.
