The devcon utility can be used to disable and re-enable devices. Having said that, it is highly highly unusual for such an action to be necessary for a GPU. Before recommending devcon, I'd recommend:
Ensure you're running the newest official, stable driver.
If the problem occurs in connection with MediaPortal, throw some log files...

I have not verified it yet, but reports from other users state that the sqlservr.exe process gain memory as it is being used in order to increase performance, and will continue to do so until about 4-10 MB memory is available. So this seems a very plausible cause :)

I am just in the process of building a new MP Client for my main TV.
I need a new copy of Windows and was wondering whether it might be worth considering Windows 8 - I have only ever used Windows 7.
Is there any point/benefit in choosing Windows 8?

After trying things over the last couple of days, I am having issues with some recordings going overtime. I have started a new thread here, which is a more correct forum to post a thread for solving these issues :)
Otherwise, I am generally happy with the SP2 update.

Hey!
I've encountered a bit strange problem.
After waking up my HTPC by remote (IRTrans) I dont get signal to my TV.
My TV is connected by HDMI from ATI HD 2600 Pro card.
The strange part is... I can hear the remote work fine (the Media Portal menu "clicks" are audible from speakers). But there is no signal to the TV...

Due to the lack of multimedia support, and the ability to install them if you wanted, would not advise anyone to buy the "basic" version of windows, don't care how cheap it is compared to the working multimedia versions, it will cost you your hair\patience trying to get things to work.

Yes, because Windows start all system services at first, like network, etc. this takes a time. MP2-Server is a service, but needs other services, like the network service or mysql in some cases. MP2 self is a autostart programm and these starts at first when all services are started. In my case I see now difference between Win 7 or...

Hi,
I ran into something really weird this morning.
I am running a WSE 2012 domain with a couple of domain members. This morning I woke up one of the clients and found the MePo homescreen to be frozen, showing the time of yesterday evening when I had switched off TV.
The PC itself was still reactive, i.e. taskbar etc. functioning...

I have seen the exact same issue on my HTPC. I also use Vista, and I too could never figure out which process was thrashing the harddrive. I normally used suspend with MediaPortal, but found out that when I used my MCE remote to turn off the computer sometimes Windows would do the shutdown and shutdown in hibernation instead. When...

Hmm, not sure why ntfs does that. There are some paid or trial defragging software that will move files to the beginning or the end of the drive according to the options you specify. I would defrag the drive using an offline defrag, meaning booting from the cd-rom drive or a usb drive and then defragging the hard drive. Just my two cents.

Has anyone tried to create a USB Stick with Android-x86 and ampddoid on it? Thinking this could be the perfect slim deployment of the client - no HDD, small memory footprint etc... I'll be trying it myself if no-one already has - just a case of finding the time! :)

off-topic, but I really hate CCC. From CCC 11.11+ onwards, my setting for overscan does not stick after a standby (let alone a reboot). So, I have been staying with 11.11.

Hi,
I got a 16:10 display with a native resolution of 1920x1200 and it is connected via HDMI with my HTPC but I only can choose 1920x1080 and via DVI I am able to select the native resolution.
Can somebody tell me if there is a solution to this problem?
