Media Centre can't find Pinnacle TV Rave tuner c ard

Hi all,
I'm running Beta 2 Build 5384, and trying to use the Media Centre to watch TV on my Pinnacle TVRave tuner card, but Media Centre kicks out an error saying that no tuner hardware was detected! The drivers for the card were dowloaded by Vista through Update, so should be good, & the device shows up in control panel without any conflicts or errors. Any ideas how I can get it running?
Cheers!

I have read that there are just a few tv-tiners that work in Vista right now. You have to wait for RC1. My ATI tv-tuner does not works also. -- AMD-FX-60 2gb OCZ Plat. memory ATI 1800 AIW 2x74gb Raptors in RAID-0 2x400gb WD HDD in RAID-1 Epox Nvidia-4 Ultra M/B Senior Member Overclockers.com

I can not find any reference to your card working with MCE or with Vista Media Center;
From the following at the Pinnacle Website it appearas that it will only work with the Pinnacle Application that came with the card.
