[QUOTE="globaldonkey, post: 315364, member: 49844"] I had that problem on an RC3 install I just did too. It did however install WMP 11. You can check by running WMP and do help | about. I may have been mistaken about what I saw in the logs. Yes, Catalyst is the ATI software / driver. I've only heard good things about the 790GX (in fact I'm thinking of getting one of the boards you have, hence the interest). Your system is throwing an error at startup that it cannot load ativvaxx.dll, which is the video acceleration driver. 0/15/2008 6:15:28 AM;"Application Popup";"(0)";"Information";"Application popup: : \SystemRoot\System32\ativvaxx.dll failed to load";"1073741850" If you've got WMP 11 installed, then this, I would suggest, is the next problem you need to solve. Also, just check you have Direct X installed - pretty sure you do, but MP didn't grab a dxdiag output in the logs you posted for some reason. Please post the dxdiag output. One of the big differences between MP and other players is that by default, other players will use VMR as the video renderer. MP by default uses VMR9, and your system definitely looks like it has some VMR9 problems. [/QUOTE]
