[QUOTE="fitzy75, post: 1053700, member: 29770"] I'm running some HP Thin Clients for my setup, I can't remember the exact model but they look like [URL='http://cloud2.baohe.org/allimg/widgetdigesttouchcom-1348054743/hp-t5740e-thin-client-powered-by-atom-processor_1.jpg']this[/URL], they've got something like an Atom 1.6 CPU, onboard graphics of some kind, 2GB RAM and a 4GB mini-IDE SSD built in, not the best out there but they are low powered and run from a standard laptop power brick, are fairly small, and I was given them by a company I work for so didn't cost me anything and fit the job pretty well when coupled with an USB MCE remote receiver. I installed OpenElec which gave astounding performance considering the specs, I can stream a 1080p MKV over the network no problem with no lag or stuttering, and they screw nicely to the back of my TVs to keep it all tidy. I would love to use MP on them but the SSDs are too small to get even Windows on there let alone anything else, and I'm too frugal to spend any money upgrading them lol. I've installed MP 1.6 on the server, have had much better success this time, the config panel opens first time and I can start to scan for channels but about half way through the scan it seems to trigger a BSOD related to acpi.sys (according to [URL='http://www.resplendence.com/whocrashed']WhoCrashed[/URL]), have been able to replicate this 3 times so far - getting the BSOD about 3 minutes into the channel scan on DVB-S. Logs to follow shortly.... To save the double post I've attached the logs here along with the related Windows Minidump if that is of any use. Have checked the windows event logs and nothing there except related to MP, only to the BSOD. [/QUOTE]
