[QUOTE="gregsmith, post: 62738, member: 21807"] Hi there, I'm running mediaportal with a Twinhan Magic Box Pro and it seems to be working ok. I have a dual monitor setup and want mediaportal to run in full screen on the secondary monitor pretty much all the time. It runs ok on the primary display, a little slow but ok. Going fullscreen is a little painful but after a short wait it happens. Now, I take the window over to the secondary monitor and it doesn't seem overly happy about it, but again after a short wait it is fine. Then I try and maximise it onto the secondary display and the software crashes. I have a P4 2.8 Prescott, 1Gb DDR 400 RAM, Radeon 9700 Pro, so I assume my setup is good enough. I have directx 9.0c. I did read something about only the primary display being accelerated by directx, but checked my dxdiag and tested both - they're fine. Also, when it starts to go full screen on the secondary display (then crashes), the taskbar seems to disappear on the primary display. Is this the norm, if so is there a way to have it stay there? Any advice appreciated. [/QUOTE]
