Help! XBMC just hangs on startup
#1
i have searched through the forums here but can't find any reference to the problem i have.  when i launch xbmc, avalaunch just sits at the "accessing" screen and nothing else happens.

this is what is (worryingly) in my xbmc log:

30-09-2004 19:57:27 notice -----------------------------------------------------------------------

the rest of the log is the same as the last 2 lines above.

can anyone help me with this, i'm an modbox noob  Blush and am now kicking myself for deleting a perfectly working xbmp without backing it up!!  Stare

turn ava's settings so that it is in pal_i mode, not pal_60 mode.
