hello there,

as in the subject, windows 7 machine, with updated video card drivers (intel graphic media accelerator).

after installing XBMC and running it starts up and then screen begins flickering as soon as the menu appears, tried diff things on the system menu with no luck. tried to play a vid through youtube addon and the soud was working fine but no picture only sound. and please note that the flickering stops when playing the video but again it's only the sound which is working.

i got the log file on

I suggest searching the forums, you may find an answer in there. I remember other users with such issue but I do not recall the fix. My gut tells my it is driver related though.

driver updated, and issue resolved.
please note that the auto-detection update software on intel's website did not detected that my driver is out of date. so you have to go manually to the GMA 3600 page and download the latest driver.

again, thanks kricker

Always best to do it manually anyhow. I never trust the auto driver detections. Marking this as closed.
