[QUOTE="postitnote100@yahoo.com, post: 61776, member: 21867"] I have just installed Media Portal, but it is running slowly. I am hoping it is not my hardware but is something that can be tweaked. My processor is a pentium M 1.4 GH (I know it is a little on the slow side, but meets the minimum requirements). The video card is Intel 82852/82855 GM/GME graphics controller with 64 MB of memory and supports directX. I currently don't have a tuner card - I wanted to install MediaPortal and see how it runs before committing money to buying the card. Anyway, MediaPortal takes several seconds to transition from menu to menu and when viewing photos or videos, it takes over a minute to do anything. My hope is based on the fact that outside of Media Portal, my system runs fine and I can view photos and video with no hitches. Any ideas? I am completely ignorant of DirectX and what should be done to take full advantage of it, so it is very probable the problem lies somewhere there. [/QUOTE]
