    I have the tv tuner card in my C90 and I'm looking for suggestions on good software to use with it, preferably freeware. I have never used a tv tuner before so any advice is appreciated. Thanks

    MediaPortal should work. http://www.team-mediaportal.com/
    I've been using this software more for the media center functionality than the tuner software. So I can't vouch for the tuner functionality, but I see no reason why it wouldn't work for yah. This might have more functionality than you need, so if you're looking for lightweight tuner software then I'd probably look elsewhere.

    Meloco14 do you have an integrated antenna? or an external one??

    anyway, if you want to view analog TV you can try to use DScaler, i dont know about DVB support, but i use it with my analog TV signal and it's perfect....Linux has ported some of the code made to make other programs that use the same filters..i also have a c90, but i got TV on my PC not on my notebook
