I purchased this TV card an it did not work. Computer did not find it and I manually installed the driver still did not show up on my computer.
I purchased a new one form Tiger Direct and it would not produce sound called Tiger and they sent out a new one no charge and I did not even have to return the old card. They told me for the amount out the cost it was not worth it.
The one they sent me works great and I will always buy form Tiger and there not hassle return policy.
Amazon deal in use and returned junk untested.
Beware

The manufacturer is Sabrent; the chipset and software is apparently by a firm called RaLink Technology, which does not provide support for SOHO users. The configuration of the system is as arcane as possible; no useful instructions of any kind are supplied (except an 8-page blurb on how it meshes with a feature in Windows XP).
The card failed to detect the network; no instructions or tech support were available. No FAQ page, no valid manual, nothing of any kind. If you’re an IT professional, you might well be able to get this thing to work. If not, please avoid this item because there is emphatically NO CUSTOMER SERVICE OF ANY KIND.

The card works well, but the set-up was somewhat confusing. My son-in-law could not figure out exactly what to do, but I managed to get it working. All we wanted was to get on a wireless network, so there was nothing fancy that we required. Part of the problem is that there are three different installation programs on the disk, and only deduction gets you to the right one.

I bought this adapter for use in an older system running Windows Me. Ad claims this unit will work for all Windows Operating Systems from Win98 up to Vista. Not true. There are no drivers for Win Me either on the included CD or on Sabrent’s download site. I did test it in a Windows XP system and it worked just fine.
I contacted Sabrent and after 3 tries they gave up and quit responding.
Buyer beware.
