Thanks for the info, you just saved me a lot of headache. I had no idea that you can hack the RC1 build to do and upgrade to RTM. If it works why does Microsoft not just make it a supported upgrade path. I guess I stopped asking questions a long time ago, who knows why they do what they do.

I am using the Scientific Atlanta card. To be honest your cable company is giving you bad information. Ussually because they don’t understand the whole CableCARD concept. As far as I know, they don’t make a card that “only works in tvs”, they probably just don’t realize how it is used in a computer. I’d give it a shot. But to familiarize yourself, check out the Custom Integrator podcast on the digital lifestyle to get information on the ATI setup screens, cause chances are you are going to have to lead your installer through the process.
