This is normal with one of these cards. (the drivers are a little bugy)
:-( Don't fret.. just continue. the 8FRONTEND DEVICE: : Device or resource
busy is just a bug in the drivers and actually means you have locked into a
correct freq.
Just tune in with myth as normal and everything will work. All the above
step does is test if you get a signal.
Thanks
