Thanks for the input. I may

Thanks for the input.  I may have some other things going on.  Things are a little better.  I got the same results with another cable verfied as HDMI 1.3.  I then went and followed these instructions.  I am now able to get a few channels, but still others either have no picture or still get the driver display error.  I did not check them all, but I was able to get local channel OK.  I did see that if I disconnected the HDMI cable from the MC some of the channels would display on my  HTPC case built-in display (vga).

I am essentially starting all over here in Wisconsin.  Would reinstalling/resetting MC as if just installed help?  If so, any hints how?  I have no problems starting over.
