Hello,

I have the following problem. When my HTPC is in standby for a night and I start it op again I see a black screen. MP client hangs. When I terminate MP client my HTPC goes immediately in standby again (like it is scheduled to go in standby modus).

I posted this error before and was tolled to update the config.exe (available here)

But this didn't help. The strange thing is that when I first installed MP 1 I didn't have this problem. Then one day MP crashed after switching a HD channel and the mp config file was suddenly empty. So I totally removed MP and installed it again and now I have this problem.

Can anybody help me with this?

Thanks!

I got that with the above driver version, try going back to one before or 181.20, use a driver cleaner like Guru3D - Driver Sweeper, prior to installing.

You do need the "restart MP on resume" enabled in the general section of MP config.

Ok , installed the newest (181.22) version. I have to test it and wait what happens

About 'restart MP on resume' I.ve tried this option but then I got an error message (I don't know what it said).
So with the new drivers I will turn it on again and hope this will help.

Thanks for helping!

The restart.vbs is not working for me. There is a restart.vbs script that actually works somewhere in the forum-threads...
...I am using that one instead...

the nvidia drivers update did it for me. I turned of the restart again because this triggers an error.
