Can't get SAA7134 to work in XP

Medion 9170/MD 5044/SAA 7134 tv watching is fun again – actually… it was…

My upgrade to Windows XP and DirectX9.0b including the hotfix DirectX9b-KB825116-x86-DEU.exe could get my TV card to work again… it really sucks… and you know what? it's only a Windows problem – when I boot the Windows 2000 partition with the same drivers the whole thing works…

AND: after rebooting into XP without powering off the card even works in XP - it's just an initialization problem after a cold boot… oh my god – I see DOS/Win3.11 times being back again… some things never change… :-(

Update: another trick with TunerFix.Exe also didnt work…
