I searched the forums and had a hard time finding anything like my problem. It was just hard to find the right search terms I guess so I thought I would post my own.
Everything seems to work fine with my mediaportal install (I'll give the specs after I explain the problem) except it freezes about every 20 seconds for about 2-5 seconds. Be freezes I mean it stops responding and all menus stop working and as soon as it unfreezes it jumps and does all the button pushes I did while it was frozen.
I've also noticed that it does this in the configurator. It does exactly the same thing, freezes (says not responding) about every 20 seconds for a few seconds then it is fine for about anoth 20-30 seconds.
This is a new build from scratch. I updated all drivers including bios and video. It is just mediaportal that is freezing, I can do other things on my PC just fine while mediaportal is frozen for those few seconds.
Here is my setup-
ASUS P5N7A-VM LGA 775 NVIDIA GeForce 9300/nForce 730i HDMI Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Rosewill RV300 300W ATX12V Power Supply
Linkworld PRESCOTT 43701-222FU Black SECC/SGCC MicroATX Mid Tower Computer Case (until I can afford a better one)
Anyware HA-IR01SV Infrared Certified MCE VISTA Remote Control
5 gigs of RAM
Intel E4400 Tried it set at default and overclocked to 2.4Ghz with the same result
Tried Vista64bit with MediaPortal stable 1.0.2, and Beta 1.1 both with the same result
Tried Win7 64ibt RTM (legit copt) with MediaPortal stable 1.0.2, and Beta 1.1 both with the same result
I'm using the StreamedMP skin and tried versions StreamedMP-0.8.448 and StreamedMP-0.9.601 depending on what MP version I was using.
The install is just going to be a frontend, so no TV-Server is installed.
I'm about out of ideas. I'm worried it is a hardware issue since it doesn't seem to matter what software I am running. Sorry for the long post, any help would be appreciated.
Also, is there any way to pull up logs to see what is happening when it freezes?
