I have had a HD-3000 running with QAM for a couple of months now. Just<br>last week everything was blacked out on that card when I tried to use<br>it. I can scan and pickup one frequency at 693000000 with a lot of<br>useless streams on it. (averthing at around 4-1000 on bandwidth with
<br>dvbtraffic)<br><br>So I tried 8VSB which is working just fine but I'm in a bad location for<br>reception. Do you think its possible that QAM can die on this card but<br>8VSB will still work fine? I force installed the kernel over itself just
<br>to make sure there wasn't anything wrong with the files, put new<br>firmware files over the old ones to make sure there wasn't something<br>wrong with that. Still, nothing changed. I figured Cox just stopped us<br>from doing this but everybody else out here seems to be getting QAM with
<br>integrated tuners just fine.And what really gets me is it seemed like it<br>was working on and off as I rebooted the system for the last couple<br>days. But that could have just been a coincidence or something.<br><br>
