I have a toshiba p10 laptop that originally came with MCE 2004 and I have since upgraded to 2005. I cannot get any video playback. If you drag and make the window bigger and smaller it will show the video as slong as you do this. Mos of the time its just black. I have new Nvidia decoder, new cyberlink decoder, they are noth MCE and MP10 Compatable. I am running Nvidia 66.83 drivers.

And have a Nvidia geforce fx go5600 graphics card in it. You can play dvds on powerdvd, but they dont play on MCE and no live video or recorded video play back. Thanks for you help Angie. All I'm running is NVIDIa DVD decoder. Planit Millennium Kitchen Design. Checks all green check marks on DECCHECK. How'd you get yours to work? Any special settings or did it magically work from the beggining.

Gripe sesssion ugh!: I'm seeing more and more threads with the same issues as I'm getting. If you ask me, and any other who's system is less than a year old that is trying to upgrade to 2005 and not succesful, MS screwed up big time and just too lazy to fix this issue. Don't get me wrong, I think their product, at least 2004 rocks. Obviously, if your MCE 2005 is working, you ain't going to subscribe to what I'm saying. They didn't make it backwords compatible and I'm not talking win 95 on a 486 folks. The system, as previously mentioned, is a p4 3.2 GHz with 512 MB ram and 64 MB video card. I'm in the near 5% most powerful home pc here in the world.

If my system were at least 3 years old, I'd be wanting to upgrade anyhow. But since it's around a year old.Don't think so Tim.

As a customer, I aren't (grammer implied) impressed with their coding. Not impressed with Toshiba (I've got a Satellite P20-Canadian label not found on the US site) since they have new systems that are running the 2005 version and haven't at least tried to help out their customers either. But hey, don't just take it from me. And yes I'm jealous of those of you who have 2005 working. 'I f.rt in your general direction';-).
