    Hey Everyone, New guy here and I just received my XPS 17 and instantly took the Seagate 500GB boot HDD out and installed the Corsair Force GT SSD that I purchased for this computer. After reinstalling Win 7 Pro I gotta say this computer is stupid fast in every aspect. So far I have been impressed with this computer in every way. Except.....................the TV Tuner.

    For those of you wondering yes I did extensively use the search function but didn't really come up with much. Anywho, everything is installed and the drivers for the tv tuner are the latest drivers but for some reason I still cant get media center to acknowledge a tv signal. Tried downloading BeyondTV and still a no go.

    If anyone has had the same issues as I am having and figured out a solution could you please let me know what you did.

    Nevermind...........Took the computer apart and the antenna wire wasn't connected to the tv tuner card. Problem solved.
