I have recently bought a Pinnacle 50i internel TV tuner card. I have connected the tuner's audio out to the motherboard's aux-in with the help of the supplied audio connector cable. I have Soundmax onboard audio where I have connected my speakers.

The problem is that after few minutes of working the sound just goes off but the picture remains as it is. I am just confused over this problem. Kindly my friends help me out with this issue.

My system configuration is 2.4Ghz P4 processor, 1GB RAM, 865GBF motherboard, 6600GT video card, soundmax audio.

See if you can connect to the sound card's line-in instead of aux-in.
