I think there is a driver conflict in your system. Open the device manager. See the properties of your card and see if there is a drivers conflict between your card and the tuner. If there is no conflict try reinstalling the drivers of you tuner card. Also I would like to know the price at which you got your GFX card.

Verify that the TV Tuner card is securely seated in the PCI slot. Removing and reseating the card can help.

Some software, such as MSN Messenger, ICQ, Yahoo Messenger, and Norton LiveUpdate, can interfere with the Tuner card. Try shutting down those programs.

Check this--->Make sure the PCI TV card is using an independent IRQ. Try moving the card to another PCI slot.

Check your motherboard BIOS settings, as follows:
Assign IRQ to VGA — ENABLE
PCI Master 0 Write — DISABLE
IRQ activate by — Level
PCI Peer Concurrency — DISABLE
CPU to PCI write buffer — DISABLE
PCI Latency Timer — a higher value can help image quality

Have you got an IRQ conflict with Graphics Card and another card in your system? The only device that can have the same IRQ is the 'IRQ Holder for PCI Steering'. If so, try assigning a different IRQ to that slot in the BIOS.
