[QUOTE="Sven Wienstein, post: 963351, member: 136900"] Hi, using a HD 5450 via HDMI on Win XP plagued me with the same issue. Switching to a VGA cable (which leaves me without sound) allows me to start though. A rough guess from me is that the TV is part of the cause. It reports only YCrB 4-4-4 and 2-2-2 modes and no rgb mode. Switching to the old 15 pin VGA cable means that the card doesn't have to care about the TVs bitdepth. Btw. I worked myseld through the different hints: Reinstall directX 9 latest release (2010 something), remove CCC from startup (via registry), reinstall CCC, startup delay... Of course no aero - this has yet to be implemented into xp ;) Adding a Win 7 licence would be quite an expense and I'd regret to be stuck with the same problem under Win7 or Vista. Any help will be appreaciated. [/QUOTE]
