I tested a couple of other TV shows and had the same problem, if I paused the playback and then resumed it it would play ok for a bit then the error would crop up again. So I ran network tuner which found my network good enough for the maximum quality HD which is as expected as both my Xbox and the TouchSmart are wired via Ethernet, I have never seen a network error at any time with Vista so I know its not a network issue. When watching a TV show the video playback stopped, the audio continued and a Network Congestion error popped up. I paired up my Xbox 360 and started watching TV on it and this is when main issue cropped up.
#HP DRIVER PACKS IQ500 INSTALL#
I added the Recorded TV folder of my Vista install as a watched folder and could watch previously recorded TV shows. Also my NOVA-T USB TV tuner worked fine just as it did with Vista, it found all my channels but ITV1 had no guide data so I used another regions ITVs guide data and that fixed it, I had the exact same problem with TV Pack so it looks like that is an ongoing problem. As I have said before Windows Media Center works brilliantly with touch and my install worked just as I saw at CES. I had full access to the multi-touch features of Windows 7, most of Windows has panning enabled with finger control also you can pinch Internet Explorer to zoom in and out and the same with pictures. After a reboot I could install the drivers.
#HP DRIVER PACKS IQ500 DRIVERS#
Then I downloaded the beta multi-touch drivers from because the drivers an un-signed and Windows 7 64bit will not installed un-signed drivers I had to disable the sign driver check using “BCDEDIT /set testsigning ON”. I did have to pick a Aero enabled theme after I had the graphics driver installed for it to enable Aero as it wasn’t selected automatically.

I downloaded the drivers and the first problem I had was HP’s drivers would not install via the download EXE files, I think the application was checking the Windows version and so it wouldn’t install in a Windows 7 environment so I opted to update the drivers manually and pointed Windows at the Vista \Windows directory which Windows 7 could then use, I go all the drivers working this way including the TV tuner.

Installing Windows 7 is very simple and took about 20 minutes but unlike some of the installs I had done there were some drivers missing. Today I installed the 64bit version of Windows 7 on a HP TouchSmart IQ500, I partitioned the drive and setup a dual boot with Windows 7 and Vista.
