No half height bracket for Win TV Nova-T

spudbynight · 27 Jul 2011 at 09:57

I am moving my HTPC into a new half height case. I have just looked in the box for a half height bracket for my tuner card - alas there wasn't one.

I called Hauppage who said they didn't ship one but had some made a couple of years ago and gave them to customers who asked for them but they have none left.

I have a couple of options

1. Hope someone on here has a low profile bracket for the WinTV Nova-T-500 spare
2. Remove the bracket and just stick it in the pci slot.

2 is the more likely - that should be hunky dory shouldn't it?

I think I just removed my full height cut it, bent the top over a bit and put it back in so the holes still lined up for the aeriel, but it was a couple of years ago

Same here a few months ago. Ended up ordering from Hauppauge's German site. They still have some left.

I contact Hauppauge support on their website and they sent me one out for free - this was a couple of years ago.

I contacted Hauppauge in the UK and they said they didn't have any left. Will try Germany.

This, but I've also had another one sent out in the last couple of months.

Hauppage UK sent me one last year for nothing, I guess I was one of the last to get one.
