[QUOTE="WildW, post: 412595, member: 84853"] Trying to fix my media centre. . . given up on old version 0.something Media Portal and tried 1.0.1 for the first time on this box. Clean Windows install, all Windows updates, latest drivers, Media Player 11, .net 3.5 SP1, etc, etc. Installed MediaPortal 1.0.1. Initially running on a monitor at 1680x1050 for testing. At first everything seemed quite good. This version of MediaPortal seemed more responsive, menus faster to navigate and browse, and so on. Next time I started up the computer, no configuration changes, loaded MediaPortal. . . the interface is bright white with only a few menu items visible in yellow. Checked forums for ideas - switching to 16-bit did help, but yucky image obviously, and the menus slow right down. Switched to lower resolution (1024x768), colours are fixed, but again the interface has slowed right down, and CPU usage in the My Videos menus is over 90% . . . it had been 10 to 20% the first time I'd run it. The menus are SO slow. . . the highlighted item will only move about once per second. The first run it would scroll down a list of a couple of hundred items in a couple of seconds. I know, my Intel 915 graphics chip is crappy. . . but it was fine until I rebooted. My skins have gone weird. Everything has gone reaalllyy sloowww. Going to try rolling back the system and installing MP again. . . but still, any ideas? Currently working on the hunch that the DirectX update applied during the MediaPortal install has ruined everything.
