[QUOTE="Passa, post: 82041, member: 25528"] Thanks, I mapped the media folder and the configuration program didnt complain :) My 64MB stick of ram died on me unexpectedly.. I'm stuck with 128MB ram now :/ If I upgrade it to 1GHz Pentium III and 512MB RAM will it run perfectly? Its a shame MediaPortal needs such high specs :( Shame also that it runs so freakin slow on my pc! Takes about 5-10 minutes for it to load MediaPortal! Hopefully I can counter this by setting the off button to by default hibernate the computer, so it doesnt need to load MediaPortal on every reboot. BTW, how can I stop it from playing things as soon as it loads? It always starts playing Nova 96.9 radio stream as soon as it loads. Also, it seems to play videos fine, but if I press ESC to go back to the menu it takes up to 2 minutes (probably because its attempting to scale the video into the window at the bottom). Is there a way I can make this faster, such as disabling it from playing after I press ESC? Multitasking music and videos isnt my thing anyway, so can I disable that to save resources? ;) Thanks for the help so far, awesome software btw :D EDIT: would lowering the resolution from 800x600 to 640x480 help combat the lag?
