I tried to connect a Hauppauge 950Q WinTV-HVR in an attempt to tune in and watch Uverse cable TV output on my windows 8 computer. It did not connect with my Windows Media Center as my old built in TV card that was in my Vista computer (I used to be able to tune to channel 3 and watch whatever was playing on my cable box by operating the cable box, not the computer).
When I installed the software, it screwed up my internet connection, which I wasn't able to fix until I uninstalled the Hauppauge software.
Does anyone have a solution to this? I had thought I could just plug in the cable and watch whatever was coming out of my cable box.

You should be able to watch on your computer using the output of your STB. I had that setup for almost a year with no issues.

In reading aviewer's response, and re-reading the OP's post, I think that he was doing that (STB output to the tuner stick) but that setup no longer works on his PC.

I missed the Windows 8 part of the original thread. I'm betting it's a software conflict from Hauppage. I'd check and see if they have updated software for Win8.
