lafitzp Posted October 8, 2006 Share Posted October 8, 2006 I got this very same error message and I tried almost everything listed here. I finally figured out a fix: check your hardware acceleration if you are getting the black screen on all videos - well Real Player and Quicktime are fine, but I could not play a DVD, nor did Media Center even have a DVD option any longer. That fixed it all. Go to control panel, display, settings, advanced and then troubleshooting. My hardware acceleration was turned off - knew how it happened but didn't know how to fix it (long boring story). This worked like magic and I only stumbled across it because I downloaded a new program for my video card that finally gave me an error message that was useful.Hope this helps...

purehale06 Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 Hey guys, Im Anthony and I have just recently purchased a new laptop for college. My laptop is an Acer and it has Media Center Edition already installed. My Media Center worked fine at first but now it gives me the "Your video card or drivers are not compatible with Media Center" error, and I am feeling helpless on fixing it. Can someone please help me and use lamens terms, I would be very grateful, thanks-oh I almost forgot my video card is a NVIDIA GeForce GO 7600, and I do have the latest drivers,Anthony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gedeons Posted December 31, 2006 Share Posted December 31, 2006 Many, many thanks to lafitzp . Everyone - check out his/her solution. I tried it and -WOW- I have my Media Center working flawlessly now. I was getting "the error" when entering MC and nothing would play.Here's what he/she said:check your hardware acceleration if you are getting the black screen on all videos - well Real Player and Quicktime are fine, but I could not play a DVD, nor did Media Center even have a DVD option any longer. That fixed it all. Go to control panel, display, settings, advanced and then troubleshooting. My hardware acceleration was turned off - I had been on the chat line with HP support quite a few time fooling around with the drivers etc for sooooooo many hours over a couple months now. They were at the point of telling me I had to perform a destructive recovery; to go back to my original hard drive restore version from when I first purchased my computer! But, lucky for me, they did point me to this web page!lafitzp gave the easiest, most logical first step. Thanks again lafitzp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edfer Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I too get the video Card and Drivers msg but after clicking ok, the Media Center opens up and seems to work OK. So why not just let the opening msg be and ignore it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
