This can be tricky. When switching mine from one PC to another, I had to look on the card and get all the info (company, model, serial number, etc.) and then start googling. I found the drivers, but they included some very odd installation instructions. I basically just tried installing what apparently was the core driver, rebooting and trying to reinstall it several times, and eventually it worked.

Those tv tuners can be a big pain to find the drivers. You may want to check out the site below. They list the same chipset that you need

they are listed for a different card, but they may use the same chipset and drivers

Marty, if you look at the card you can get the FCC number off it and then enter that number on this site I am going to post. It will then tell you exactly what you have. Scrool down to the left there is an link to the FCC ID Search.
