I called ATI Customer Care for help. They told me to go to their knowledge base web site to read the corrective actions.

The "help" involved requiring you to install an amplified antenna.

I have been using an external yagi beam antenna for years without an antenna amplifer to collect the Houston Texas HDTV signal for my over the air tuner from Dish Network.

I purchased and installed the amplifier Per ATI's instructions and still the ATI TV Wonder 650 would not recognize any local HDTV signals. The dongle crashes were repeatable.

I called the ATI customer care center and advised them of my problems and they told me to return the card to Best Buy.

Sure was a lot of wasted time and money.

Thanks ATI!]]>Sep 5th 2006 9:25AM
