Does anyone know of any limitations using 8GB memory on Vista 64? I found out today that I can not use my WinTV PVR 500 tuner card because Media Centre is limited to less than 4GB of memory |

The Hauppauge HVR 1600 and other PCIe models work fine with 8 GB RAM. Tom Lake |

I was looking at getting the HVR 1600, would you know if it supports PAL?

If you go to http://www.hauppauge.com/ you can look at the products they offer and see if they have PAL support.

Basically if the description states it is for PAL, then it supports PAL. If the description states it's for NTSC, then it supports NTSC. If the decription states it's for ATSC, then it supports High Definition television. The products offered to you depend on where you live. The U.S. and Canada are offered different products than in Europe. If you really want to know, then contact Hauppauge and ask them - "straight from the horse's mouth!"
