Dear all,

I have exactly the same problem with MCE for Vista Ultimate. Have a
PVR-150 with I tried everything :
* Logon with different id for the ehrecvr.exe service
* Disabling other device which was at the same IRQ
* Other programs => They work
* The routine with registering services.

Anybody any other idea.

KR,
Koen
