Well last night i think i toasted the media center. I am running vista 32 bit ultimate my hardware is a 3500 athlon 64 1 gig of kingston hyper x ram 6800 gt oc haupagge (sp) 250 tv tuner
Basically i was getting a lot of artifacting on the screen with my old ati 9800 so i swapped it out with my 6800 gt oc. When I changed the video cards i had a bunch of problems with drivers. I used a driver cleaner to remove all of the ATI junk got the newest nvidia drivers running in it. Set it up for the TV and was on my way. I tried to bring up media center and it blue screens but the computer is still running and i can hear media center starting up in the back of the blue screen. I hit power and put the computer to sleep and i bring it back up and then media center is running fine. So that was like a week ago it has been limping along doing that. Now a new problem
Now when I get the tv to work the video is very laggy the sound is fine. In task manager the media center process is bouncing from 60% to 100% of course it hits 100% goes laggy. I can't play recorded TV it has the same problem but when i play a dvd it is fine.
I have checked over the hardware a bunch of times and ran tests on everything its fine. I ran an ad-aware scan last night along with avast anti-virus scan on it.
Thanks in advance.
