Hi Guys,
I've installed XBMC 11.0 Eden. But everytime I try to start it it crashes with the dreaded black screen and windows declaring 'Windows Xbmc has encountered a problem and needs to close error'.
I went back and tried the Dharma version and that works. Having looked through the forums and several searches a recurring theme seems to be graphics drivers.
I grabbed and copied the log file and pasted here http://xbmclogs.com/show.php?id=6218. Note this is with an older nvidia card I tried, I have now put back in my Nvidia Geforce FX 7800GS and I still get the same crash.
Can anyone offer some advice from experience? Roll back the driver to a particular version? Change the graphics card to an ATI, etc? Is this an Nvidia issue?
Thanks in advance for any help.
