i was getting the same errors on one of my 500's (i have two in my
backend), same symptoms you have with one of the tuners on the bad 500
working.  i rma'd mine and hopefully the new one i get in two days
doesn't have the same problem! *crosses fingers*  going from four
tuners down to two hurt quite a bit.

looks like there must have been a bad batch of cards for multiple
people to see this problem.  hopefully it's fixed now.
