So I got this tuner for my PC that has 2 rf inputs and 2 satellite inputs. I planned to use it for analog tv because the new tv I got handles it terribly. Anyway I can tune it in using the PCTV TV Center software and it finds the channels but then it either gets a bsod or starts to lock up or the screen just stays blank instead of showing a channel. 

 

Could this just be incompatible with windows 10? I can install Windows 7 to try it but I was just looking for a second opinion in case it's a waste of time.

Old TV tuners barely work in 10 anymore sadly. If it’s a USB device, you could pass it through to a VM in virtualbox/vmware player and use it that way.
