probably installing another software on my PC something clashed it. I have

Re: Vista Media Center Video Error
After spending countless days / hours with this exact error, which by the way also impacted WMP and PwrDVD, I discovered my issue was not a video error at all, but an audio issue. I have a Creative Fatality card w/front panel. When I selected SPDIF, all my video apps crashed. As soon as I switched to the Creative SB -xFi device, all apps and video played without incident. I am not saying this will address everyones issue, however; it indicates to me that the "Video Error" delivered by MCE is a catchall and not representative of the true issue.
