[QUOTE="Grahamgo, post: 422640, member: 91783"] Here's why. I have installed V1.02 approx 5 times, 2 times doing a Hard drive format and clean XP Pro install, SP3 etc. I tried everything, used the latest drivers, did registry cleaning. But always faced the same problem which was that the TV-server appeared to be working, but MediaPortal stopped on the TV-setup screen asking for a server name or IP. I have posted quite a few times on this forum and got some ideas but without success. Anyway today I decided to try V1.01 and guess what, lo and behold it works! This time I just did a full delete of MediaPortal and a registry clean and re-boot. The install and setup went exactly as per the guideline. Now I am looking forward to actually using it. I naturally have a hesitation to upgrade - too much pain! Unfortunately this is still one problem. If I allow the program to start in the full screen mode the PC mostly crashes (blue screen of death). If I start in a window and then go to full screen - no problem. But I see plenty of threads on this so I will do some Forum reading. :P Thanks again for the help. [/QUOTE]
