HD problems with Windows 7

[dvd_maniac]

I just installed Windows 7 64bit RTM and I'm trying to add a 2250, HDHR and 2 HD-PVR's.
The 2250 analog tuners are fine but the HD tuners do not find any QAM channels available.
The HDHR works fine in the Homerun setup and I have it configured for Sage and Sage finds the channels but no Signal.
The HD-PVR's keep giving me a playback error even though the recordings play fine in WMP. What codec should I install in Windows 7 to get these to play in Sage?

Take a look at the native recording patch in the beta forum. It will allow you to use the included Microsoft decoder for both mpeg2 and h.264. You shouldn't need to install a codec.
Windows 7 64bit I thought required signed drivers. Or a workaround to use unsigned drivers.

Existing 32 bit drivers no longer work.If you have older or poorly supported hardware you may find that it can no longer be used. Got a 7 year old scanner that just about works in Vista? You may not be able to get it working in 64 bit Windows 7.
Unsigned kernel-mode drivers no longer work. Along with the issue above, the inability to run unsigned kernel mode drivers will cause problems for old hardware. (There is reportedly a way to bypass this check).

Use this tool:
Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider 1.3b

Thanx gplasky, I'll try the two suggestions tonight.
