[QUOTE="brokenrobot, post: 755021, member: 103207"] Yeah ATI suck balls. The ATI card is just the one that came with the PC. I've just bought an Nvidia 8400GS 512 off fleabay for £30 so this should get the rez up a bit higher as this driver lets me set a max res of about 1440 x 900 which is too little for the nice monitor I'm setting it up on. Thought I'd post this too as it might prove useful to someone one day. After setting the max rez in ATI catalys driver to 1440 x 900 MP looked a bit grainy on my monitor so I just went to the Desktop>Display Properties>Setting> and turned the rez up to 1920 x 1080. Then, when I try and start up Media Portal my PC stutters and I get the message "switching to the reference rasterizer" My machine became unuseable and MP refused to start like this so I went back to Display Settings, turned it back down to 1440 x 900 and now it runs fine again.
