My System

Question allmost the same setup, but problems freezing on filmstrip

Hi Petsa,


As you can see, I have a very similar setup as you have, same mobo, same CPU, same Ninja cooler, same case!.. only more Gb DDR (4) and I have not tweaked the fusion case (yet!) and I have only one 500Gb HDD, also I do not have the TVcard yet installed (I allready put in my system description, because I will build it in in a few days).

But from the start I have installed Mediaportal, I have problems using mediaportal when scrolling using the filmstrip view.. The graphics freezes after scrolling to the second picture or so, sometimes even after not scrolling at all, it freezes and even some graphic elements disapear from the screen. But listening to the sound it still responds to the remote/mouse inputs.. In the blind I can start a movie, but then I do hear sound, but the screen remains at the frozen mediaportal screen. To resolve this, I have to use ctrl-alt-del and end the mediaportal task.. then the computer resumes to normal operation

I have checked the error log of Mediaportal, and it shows that DirectX element Direct3D is causing errors.

I wonder, since you have a very similar system, if you have (had) the same experience. and if you resolved it, what was your solution?..Also if you do NOT have this experience, which driver do you use with the ATI Xpress1250, right now I have the lates and greatest downloaded and installed from the AMD website (7.12).

Your help is much appreciated, Thanks in advance!
