When I first started using my USB dvb dongle, I had the opposite
problem. It would only work if I loaded Windows, then rebooted into
Linux. It turned out that I did not have the correct firmware in
Linux. From my experience, it sounds like the firmware loaded by
windows is not the same as the one loaded by Linux. Is it possible to
up/down grade the windows driver so that it matches the Linux one?
