Locks up? (1 Viewer)

[Lukky]

I just installed media portal and it locks up on me. I think all of my drivers are updated. I really like what I have seen from the software so far. Media Portal just seems unstable right now.

Thanks for the help

Hi Lukky - welcome to the forum

Video Card: ATI Radeon Express 1150

My guess is that this the issue with X1250 also goes here

Please see: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/general-support-51/ati-690g-x1250-problems-29894/

In short: ATi has screwed things up. Use driver ver. 7.2 (or previous) or modified skins

For some reason it is working better now. I did update my direct x from the microsoft website. I changed skins but it was working better before I did that.

Thanks For the help

It depends what MP "page" you are viewing. I believe the problem has to do with reflections (flipY-code).

... but it will probably crash until you a) install old driver b) use modded skins or c) by a standalone gfx


d) ATi fixes it? - LMAO

yup it started crashing again after I figured out how to add album art. Anytime I go to my videos it locks it up good. That is ok I am not going to run Mp on this machine. I ordered parts for new machine. Am I going to have problems with
Diablotek Radeon X700se Video Card - 256MB DDR2, PCI Express, DVI, VGA, TV Out, Video Card

I ordered it about 24 hours before I found MP

Thanks Dustin
