I have a HP laptop with TV Wonder USB. After a few minutes of
watching TV the system will lockup. It will sometimes play

for 30
minutes
before locking up .
I am thinking this is a software problem but am open for
suggestions.
I
have
formatted and reinstalled OS

laptop is running xp home ,
the tv wonder usb used to work just fine..
until last week...all of a sudden starts doing things like

locking
up..
pls advise
