I have VGN-AR71ZU which i have just upgraded to windows 7 and the TV tuner has vanished! 7's action centre gave me a link to download the drivers but they turned out to be for an analogue card not digital.Does anyone know firstly how can i find out what card i have
/model no. and secondly how to get it working again?!
Thanks in advance!

Hi Richard,

Press the windows key+R to open the Run box type devmgmt.msc and press OK

Click Continue on the User Account Control window.

scroll down and expand Sound, Video & Game controllers.

Do you see the TV Tuner listed.?

Hi, I have the same problem after installing windows 7. I have done the check in Device Manager, Sound, Video & game controllers and do not see a TV tuner listed.

How do i find out what driver is required and where will i find it?

Many thanks,

John.
