It appears that it is not supported on Windows 7 64-bit, so I went out and purchased the Diamond ATI TV Wonder HD750. Th ATI 650 installed in 10 minutes. After hours of attempting to install the 750 it still does not work. Find some other solution beside the Microsoft Media Center if you are on Windows 7 64-bit.
