I thought well let me try under the other OS I didn't have any drivers for the same, since the demodulator driver doesn't exist in the other OS also, but the bridge device does have the driver. I plugged the card in, the OS searched for drivers, since i didn't have any didn't load any.. So it went under a question mark. Looking under Resources, It showed the PCI information string like this .. PCI\VEN_1822&DEV_4E35&SUBSYS_00311822&REV_01\4&2E98101C&0&10F0 then i thought try with the driver eventhough support for the demodulator doesn't exist .. Downloaded and installed drivers .. Lo ..! Memory Range: F87FF000 - F87FFFFF IRQ : 17 it got assigned a memory region indeed. So, to wrap it up, the device is not dead .. We have something wrong in the PCI subsystem probably.
