[QUOTE="craigparris1, post: 550531, member: 75254"] Hi doubleugk, First things, do you know which database version you're actually going to use? You say that "MySQL service has a general problem to start" which seems to indicate that at least MySQL is installed. Do you also have any MSSQLSERVER services? If you are intending to use MySQL and the service is having problems starting, then you're probably best to look in the Windows Event Viewer and there will likely be some errors logged that will give you can indication of what the problem might be. With Windows 7 you get User Access Control on by default, so it could be that the MySQL service needs specific permissions to run (sorry, I don't use MySQL so I can't give you actual details). If you're planning on using SQL Server, though, again your first spot to look is the event log to figure out if that service is starting successfully. Attaching some MediaPortal logs may also help, although if you haven't actually configured TV-Server successfully yet then I'm not sure what logs there will be. Sorry - not a lot of help - but the information you've provided is a little vague at the moment. Cheers, Craig [/QUOTE]
