Hi everyone, I'm having some problem that seems to be similar to a know issue "690G/X1250 Chipset". However, I did not had problems with the previous version of MP (.32 or something like that).
The problem:
MP installs ok. The instalation setting is with no TV function.
When MP starts the first time all I see is the configuration window and a MP crash report window.
The configuration windows seems ok, I can click and change stuff, it is visible.
Then I close everything.
When I click to open MP shortcut, it loads the MP splash window ok, but after that, all I can see is the border of the MP window. I can also see the menu with "File","Open, and "Wizard", when I click on them, nothing seems to work except "Exit".
As you will see, this computer is very old, but has just received a clean install. It does not meet some requirements (CPU is 1.3 instead of 1.4 minimum) , however, I remember installing .2.3 for a few days and working ok; but that was a very very long time ago. I think everything else required for the installation is in order.
I would like to know if there is something that is wrong (software), or if I should just give up because of its old hardware. It's an HP Pavilion 512x, if that helps. I just wanted to hook it up so my mom, who is not tech-savy, can use the simple menu to browse videos, music and youtube on the TV.
