I give in, I can't sort this one out!! I'm running Power DVD 3 thru a Radeon VE, an ECS75sA board with XP and 512 DDR ram. First problem is when I first open PWDVD to play a DVD: it really doesnot seem happy at all, resets the screen so that the monitor drops out to black (as if I was rebooting) quite a few times before it settles down.
Then when it's finally open and running it presents a black screen. When I go to change the resloution from 16 to 32 bit it drops in. Doesn't seem to matter which one I start with, so long as I go in and change it it's ok. Same thing happens when I use the TV out. I've tried changing the resolution of the monitor (settled on 60Htz) but all to no avail.
Lastly! media player 9 and Windvd just lock up, taking the whole thing with it, randomly when playing a DVD, leaving me no other option than to soft boot the machine. Also prone to do this if I fiddle with the settings during playback, but it can basically do this at any time. Most frustrating when half way thru a film!!
Distinct need for help here guys!!
