Question MediaPortal Freezing on startup.

Hello,

I'm currently trying to get MediaPortal to function and am having a problem when I launch it.

Specifically when I launch the App I get the splash screen that shows all of the components loading but it freezes when it begins loading DirectX, it freezes up. I left on that screen for about 30 minutes to be sure. The odd thing is that when it does this, I am unable to do anything else. If I continually hit Ctrl+Alt+Del between 5 and 15 times it will eventually unfreeze and continue loading. I'm running DirectX 9c. What have I done wrong? I tried the FAQ, looking at listed known issues, and searching the forum but so far no luck. Any Ideas?
