I had a virus on the computer, i had to use the f10 system recovery to take
the computer back to system defaults. my problem is i'm trying to set the
media center up again. Most of the channels work and just a few have no
signal, i use no cable box. i go to the channel and the tv guide says the
right channel and whats on the channel, but nothing but snow. like thers no
signal, i did the missing channel thing on the settings, did not work. i
reinstalled the drivers, did not work. of 99 channels maybe around 10 don't
have a signal, but the guide works. i had all the channels before the f10
recovery, any help would be appreatiated.

thank you

He said "i had to use the f10 system recovery to take the computer back
to system defaults". This qualifies as cleanly reinstalled in my book.
