My System: Pace Sky HD, DM7000s, CubeRevo 3000HDPVR, Transparent 80cm Dish, Moteck SG2100 DiseqC motor, lots of legacy gear. Meters: Satlook Digital NIT, Televes H45 Digital Spectrum analyser.

That one looks like a terrestrial tuner card for UHF and VHF, so will be no good trying to connect to the dish, it requires a terrestrial antenna. Look for a PC card with DVB-S or DVB-S2 tuner, but you need a very fast PC for the DVB-S2.

PS. Changed your thread title from "Please help . . " to something a little more indicative of your question.
