[QUOTE="hey__me, post: 390387, member: 89543"] I've been fighting for 3 nights now trying to get MP working on this computer. Right now I have the following issues: Vista Home Premium OS: TV server seems to be ok launching the main media portal program I get a error ding while starting directX (no window with an error) have to either hit enter or ESC to get it to go further. It then hangs on starting plugins XP Home OS: Seems to have a problem with how SQL server is getting configured. 1st install, system blue screened just as SQL server completed it's install 2nd Install - after a manual install of SQL from MS Website - MP started up fine and ran until I rebooted, then same blue screen on startup. disable SQL Server Service, and windows starts fine. Both OS were fresh installs - I'm still loading Service Pack 1 on Vista now. I was thinking that it was the integrated video card causing the issues as it is an older Intel 915G style integrated graphics, but like I said I had it working on XP until I rebooted. Any Ideas? Looks like it is a display driver issue after all: turned off start in full screen, and now can read the error messages. Both dealing with a software rasterizer not being a full DirectX. How does one go about getting the software rasterizer? Does the DirectX SDK have it? [/QUOTE]
