Hi

I purchased a DVB-T TV USB Stick to receive freeview channels through my pc, however, i've installed it & its now saying 'no tv card' has anyone experienced this before? I thought I only had to buy this?

It has a small aerial with it.

Thanks in advance

Is the stick detected when it is plugged in (you hear the little ding noise). Do you mean you are using a USB HUB (a milti socket that connects into 1 usb port of the computer)
