    I have had Windows 7 installed for about a week on a hpa6119h system.  Running Vista on the same pc with the same tv tuner (Hauppauge 1800) Media center worked fine.  For the first week , W7 on this computer had no problems, setup of Media Center worked and I had all of my NTSC and Clear QAM channels working.  Both Linksys extenders were working fine.  Yesterday I tried to turn on Media Center and got the message listed in the caption above.  I haven't been able to use it since.  I noticed that the problem had occoured with some other people in this forum.  Has anyone ever gotten an answer yet?
    I tried installing the hotfix from KB 935685 but it didn't work.  I also uninstalled and reinstalled the latest driver for the tv tuner.
