Message: <blockquote data-quote="Three6ZeroCool" data-source="post: 1257045" data-attributes="member: 139125">Thanks for linking that post.I downloaded the 2 files.I first upgraded my install to 2.2 Pre-release, then replaced the files.Unfortunately it made no difference at all to my startup issues.It progresses thru the normal Mediaportal startup, and gives messages like loading fonts, loading plugins.. then screen goes black, and back on Windows desktop, then it just starts running Mediaportal again, and repeats forever.I then have to run task manager, but that poses another problem, trying to kill the mediaportal task, as it rapidly appears and disappears, so it takes like multiple attempts to successfully select and end the process. (sometimes 20-30 attempts)I have a complete drive image, so I reloaded that, and got back to working 1.20 Final configuration,  then I let Windows update do it's thing, and noticed that it screwed my 1.20 Final config. ie. It now exhibits the same weird startup behavior.I tested my clients, and the TVserver itself is working fine, but the local MediaPortal client can not load into the main GUI.While messing around, I managed to crash my Nvidia drivers, so got the error that Display Driver did not start, using basic drivers blah blah blah.I then tried running MediaPortal again, and this time it worked.I then tried restarting the PC, and once again get caught in the startup Loop of MediaPortal.Seemingly something in the recent Windows Updates is causing this behavior?It may have upgraded my NVidia drivers, as they seem to be a later version than I previously had, so can maybe restore my drive image again, and see what versionI had before, and then see what happens.If I can get things working again with the new pre-release MediaPortal version, I can test Colossus1 and 2 functionality for you, as I have both.</blockquote>
