  • I just wondered if it would have any problems on a new i3-330m 2.13ghz laptop.

  • @blazejewiczk,

    Absolutely not... that's more than fast enough for all features.

    Peace,

  • I have a Gateway Netbook LT2030u it is new but it has a 250gb hd and 1.60 processor with 2gb of ram. Will this work in my netbook? I'm just planning to watch tv that's it no recording

  • @JOVANI7919,

    Will it work? Yes... Will it work with all features and be beautifully smooth? Probably not.

    Peace,

  • I am getting a new gateway laptop in the next couple weeks and was planning on buying this. I got to the part of the video that said it needed atleas a 2.4 processor and the laptop I am getting is a 2.1, it kinda puts a damper on me getting this.. Wish the requirements wernt so steap.. Would have been nice to have so that I can get HD in my car on long trips.

  • Prence,

    That's 2.4Ghz Pentium 4. If you're getting a new Gateway laptop, it'll be a Core 2 Duo. Different architecture, different CPU. You'll have more than enough power to take full advantage of the PCTV HD.

    .

    Peace,

    Fr. Robert

see all

  • Can this record xbox 360 gameplay

  • Is this the one there selling at radioshack? The radioshack reviews of this product aren't the nicest to read, lots of them say not to buy the product because the software has problems installing, the model number that radioshack is selling is (copied from site) PCTV23058 HD Mini Stick USB TV Tuner.

  • Great review

  • @gadgettts It's a netbook....Is there any new ones out since it has been 4 months now?

  • can you record xbox 360?
