TV on Computer

[oncemorealoft]

I have installed software to run a Twinhan TV Alpha gadget that allows me to watch vieo on a computer. The installation works fine on my Dell desktop but on my Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Laptop (pentium M 1.6ghz) every 4-5 secs the picture freezes for a fraction of a second or there is pixelation of the image.

I assume this is to do with my laptops performance.

I have uploaded the latest version of DirectX (9.0) and the latest driver for Graphics (Intel 82852/828555 GM/GE.

please can anyone suggest further things I can explore to get the TV picture running smoothly?

Many thanks

I gave up! I tried reinstalling several times and it played up each time. I contacted the manufacturers and they just didn't understand English - or the problem. I got in touch with the suppliers and they want to wash their hands of it - I just don't think the thing knows what it should be doing!!

Its too much of a drag to go to small claims court so I have trashed it.

Have to admit that it was frustrating trying to use the instructions but I got it working on our two Dell laptops and the picture quality is good.
Shame you binned it!
