Good day, I have Vista Home Ultimate HTPC, when I enter TV+Movies & go to either recorded tv or live tv. I can t view anything because it gives me an error message:
Video Error:files needed to display video are not installed correctly. Please restart windows media center or restart the computer
I tried to fix it my self:
  1. I restarted the computer
  2. I installed all updates
  3. I installed windows vista codec pack
None of this worked, can anyone advise me how to rectify this, below is my system list:
AMD athlon X3 425 2.7GHZ
4GB DDr3 ram
gigabyte GA-MA785gmt-ud2h
WD 1 TB HDD

Thank you for your time

You Graphics driver is corrupted.
If your Windows Vista is 32Bits download it from here:

http://america.gigabyte.com.tw/File...d_driver_chipset_amd_7series-v2.0_vista32.exe

If it is 64Bits download it from here:
http://america.gigabyte.com.tw/File...d_driver_chipset_amd_7series-v2.0_vista64.exe

After download:
Go to
-My Computer
-Unistall or change a Program
Look for ATI name, click once and choose uninstall.
-Reboot the machine
install the new driver by clicking twice in the file that you downloaded.
after that reboot the machine again and try to run Media Center Again.
