is Vaio Fs115b not compatible with a TV tuner PCMCIA card?

I just purchased a Brand New Vaio FS115b and tried my current TV tuner duo cardbus on the laptop, but it didn't work properly as I used it on my Compaq X1000. The video keep freezing randomly on every digital channels and has a little bit of flicker on the analogue channels. I put back the TV tuner card to my Compaq, and it still work flawlessly. I tried to uninstall the card driver on the Vaio, then reinstalled it, but the problem still remains. I suppose that there may be one of 3 reasons below.
1. The Intel shared memory graphic card on the Vaio is not good enough to support the video on the TV tuner.
2. the card itself may not be fit correctly for a Vaio cardbus slot as I find it a bit hard to pop the card in.
3. the card driver may not be compatible with the Vaio system.
That 's all about the cause of the problem I can think at the moment. Is there anybody who can tell me what the exact cause is? If it falls in the first chance, I will return the FS115b to get a FS115S that has a better dedicated graphic card. So please reply me soon. Your help would be much appreciated.
