How to Install

1. Download the Hauppauge WinTV NOVA T driver package for your version of Windows and save it to an easy-to-find folder.
2. Uninstall any previous WinTV NOVA T driver through Control Panel or Settings, then restart your computer.
3. Confirm that the WinTV NOVA T device is connected to a USB port or that the internal card is properly seated in its slot.
4. Right-click the downloaded setup file, select “Run as administrator,” and follow the instructions shown on screen.
5. Restart Windows after the installation finishes, launch your TV application, and run a channel scan to verify the tuner is working correctly.

Common Issues and Fixes

• Install fails or rolls back: Run the Hauppauge setup as administrator and, for older Nova-T PCI drivers, use Windows 7 compatibility mode. Temporarily disable driver signature enforcement only if the package is unsigned, then reinstall and reboot.
• Device not detected: Power off, reseat the PCI card, and try another PCI slot. In Device Manager, look for an unknown device or yellow warning under Sound, video and game controllers; install the BDA driver manually via Update driver > Browse.
• Version conflicts: Uninstall old WinTV/Hauppauge software and remove hidden tuner entries in Device Manager before installing the matching Nova-T PCI driver; don’t mix packages for Nova-T Stick/USB models.
