Hi
Okay, ive just built up a pc for my sister, now the pc itself is built from parts that i have been using for a while, the motherboard, cpu(1.8ghz) and ram(768mb) are all the same, ive installed a radeon x1650 pro and a haupage tv card and a nice new hdd. Ive got it running on windows media center edition 05 with quite a few updates, rollup2 etc.
It works fine when im browsing the web, watching videos and such. However when i load Media centre given time usually only a min or two and it will crash completly freezing up my pc and forcing me to manually reboot. sometimes the screen goes black and states theres no monitor input, sometimes the screen freezes, you can see where you were last but nothing responds and sometimes and this is the odd bit, it goes weird, you'll get a little graphic glitch, its only short, but it lead me to believe there might be and issue with the graphics card, ive installed the cd drivers that came with the card and later on reinstalled them to make sure. I cant figure out whats up with it, ive even swapped out the ram because i thought there might be an issue but it does the same still.
Im guessing that there is some sort of software glitch with mce but i dont know how to fix it. any help would be greatly appreciated
thanks
