[QUOTE="foxx, post: 31711, member: 17168"] Hi there! I hope you are able to help me. Because this is freaking me out. :shock: I can't get MediaPortal to run, because it keeps crashing at startup with an error. This is my system setup: Area: Media Portal Program MP Version: latest CVS (mediaportal-cvs-01-05-2006--12-32) Skin: mce Windows Version: WindowsXP Service Pack 2 CPU Type: AMD K6-2 @ 450Mhz Memory: 192MB SD-RAM Motherboard Chipset: ASUS P5A-B, with ALI-don't-ask-me-chipset Video Card: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 ULTRA Video Card Driver: 61.77 --> Latest Driver which supports my Video-Card Video Card Resolution: 1024x768, 32bit, 75Hz Video Render Type: Overlay Sound Card: Soundblaster 128PCI Video Codec Type & Version: ffdshow (some december build) Audio Codec Type & Version: don't know TV Card: none TV Card Type: -- TV Card Driver: -- Optional Log: Log just shows 1 entry: "Started new MediaPortal Wizzard" or something similar. Not very informative. Optional References: Installed .NET 2.0, DX 9c, MozillaActiveX, Latest SoundDrivers, Chipset Drivers (ALI AGP, ALI IDE BUS), flashed newest MB BIOS (1011 beta 005) Synopsis: MediaPortal Setup always crashes with an error, when starting up. Doesn't show any information, or error codes. It just crashes. ("configuration.exe caused an error and has to be closed") ----------------------------------------------------------------- I don't know what's wrong. I tried it on my other computer with the same software-setup (WinXP SP2 etc) and it works just fine. But it has different hardware, of course. Because it works fine on this computer i tried changing some hardware. Maybe there's something wrong with it. So I changed, the SoundCard, VideoCard, NetworkCard and SD-Ram. Didn't do the job. Still the same. Before I tried the latest CVS, I tried different older versions of MP and it crashes with an exception error, instead of this "configuration.exe cause an error..."-error. So CVS didn't solve the problem. Do you have any suggestions? Maybe someone tried the same Hardware Setup and knows a solution? Maybe there is some BIOS setting to be changed? I tried different solutions mentioned on this Board, like installing directx_dec2005_redist.exe, removing MediaPortal.xml, replacing it with a MediaPortal.xml from a running htpc etc. Didn't solve the problem. Win2k also doesn't work. --> same Problem. This seems to be a hardware problem, right? This is freaking me out. I've been trying to solve this problem for a few days now and it's just frustrating. Why does it run on every other computer, than on mine??!! :cry: Is there a way to debug this error? I don't know how to do a traceback. Can you tell me? Thx for your help! foxx [/QUOTE]
