Purchased it a few days back
Its a japanese make and runing on windows 8.1 pro
all channels were prefed and japanese .. somehow i deleted the data and the media centre but still after re-installing media centre and driver it says region is Japan and won't accept any other region option
tv tuner card is pixela DT-217
option
-- instal win 7 ... the hdd is locked to some GPT type and changing sata compatibilty is risky at times .. i remember once i had to instal xp before i could use such hard disk .. plus i don;t want to mess with original win 8.1 though it came with recovery cds/dvds unless someone gives a definite solution
