Default [Answered] Media Center Problem

Greetings Everyone,

I have recently been having a problem since I reformatted my PC with Media Center TV Recording/Viewing.

I have pinpointed what the problem is but can't find a fix for it. From what I have found out I am having a gross error in MPEG-2 video decompression.

When I am watching TV/Recordings in Media Center I see odd-colored blocks in random locations in the video image.

This only happens when using Media Center to watch recorded TV. At first I thought it was my Video Card but since it started and only happens with Media Center I started researching that way and found a identical picture stating that it was that problem. The only problem is it doesn't state a fix.

The problem is in when I use Media Center to play back the Program I recorded. If I use Media Player there is no problem at all. (But I like using Media Center because I watch TV with Friends over the net and it lets me turn on Captions incase I can't hear their sound very well)

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You

Hi intent!

Not sure, but have you downloaded and installed all the Windows Updates?
