thanks for reading this post
I fancy the BLACKGOLD BGT3635 but cant find any feedback from users yet I am thinking might have to bite the bullet and jump in any thoughts would love too hear from you thanks again for reading

You might have been better posting in the PC section.

Anyhow, you need a DVB-T2 and DVB-S2 card, presuming you want HD.

BlackGold and TBS are the brands to look for. Hauppauge used to be OK, but they seem to have lost the plot.

I use Windows 7 Media Center for both Freeview and freesat. Both work OK, and I get a full 14 day EPG for both.

Lots of good advice here:

re Blackgold cards - I bought a couple of freeview only Blackgold cards when HD first arrived (they were the only HD cards at the time). I think they were BGT3620 dual and BGT3650 quad. Whilst both give a good picture, they tend to lose tuners ie I now have a single tuner pc and a 3 tuner pc. Re-tuning Windows Media center (on Windows 7 Ultimate x64) sometimes fixes this, but the problem returns. Other customers have reported similar experiences.

I don't know if this bug has been fixed, but I'd say avoid Blackgold.

thanks for your repiles sorry for posting in the wrong section as I said I was not sure where too post this can a mod move too correct location please sorry once again
and thanks for your help so far food for thought my TBS 6280 has worked faultless for a year now on win7 64Bit just thought I would move a little further forward
thanks again
