Other than that MP ran fine. These forums said that the problem was due to not having SP3 so I decided to bite the bullet and upgrade to SP3. I ended up doing a completely fresh install again and going straight to SP3 before installing the rest of my drivers, etc. Now however, when I go to open either the main MP or the MP Config, it displays the splash screen, runs through the loading message, etc..... but then it disappears and nothing loads.

This may or may not be related but thought I'd mention it. I am currently back running MP 0.2.2 and it loads and runs fine... but I'd prefer to have the neat features of the new version :( I have tried reinstalling all the required components but nothing has helped. Any ideas? Edit: I have also uninstalled and reinstalled MP with no luck. There is no actual "crash" here either so no error messages etc... just a perpetual hanging process. [/QUOTE]
