Black screen video woes in vista, Camelot 9.11

Question 
Hey y'all.

Did a fresh install of xbmc Cam 9.11 on a windows Vista laptop.

Played a local video (xvid) and also a quicktime apple trailer (nightmare on elm st), but simply had a black scrn while the sound continued. Tried windowed mode, same deal.

The laptop is Intel Celeron 540 1.86GHz, 382MB ram
CPU: Intel Celeron 540 1/86GHz
RAM: 382MB
GFX: VIA Chrome9 HC2 IGP S4 Graphics (IGP Family WDDM) 128MB
Installed drivers: VTGUModeDX32.dll, desktop res: 1280x800 60Hz 32-bit colour
Driver version: 7.14.14.19
DirectX: 10.0
OS: Windows Vista Home


Is the camelot version DirectX or OpenGL? (is this the cause?)
Just trying to get video!

If anyone can help, much appreciated. Smile
