Hi Eric,
It was not the driver that caused the problem.
Apparently there is a combination of hardware and software that causes
the card not to be detected properly by Windows 98.
This in turn causes that no driver is being loaded at all.

I think the source of the problem may be the WinTV hard- and firmware.
Anyway WinTVID.Exe cures this.
See you, Eric
