Thanks for your replies. It appears that boards with the Intel SATA controller built in to the south bridge don't have any problems.
With the NF7-S and VP DVB-t, some fiddling with PCI latency settings improves matters a little, but it is still unwatchable when recording. I think the VisionPlus is a lost cause. I'm still trying to find a DVB-t card that is likely to work with the NF7-S V2.0 and SATA. Any more comments? I'm thinking of shelling out for a DVICO card in the hope that it will be more reliable.
