Tried re-inserting your ram sticks? Or maybe try with just one inserted.

cheers

[gui]

yes it start now,but just with one stick on the first slot,why?

[harryzimm]

Not sure tbh. Have you tried them both individually to rule out a faulty stick?.

cheers

[gui]

yes both stick work but only on the first slot

[harryzimm]

Looks like it could be a ram compatibilty problem, or a faulty board. Do you have any other ram sticks to test?

cheers

i did swap around and change some setting in bios and is working ok now.
just tried the killa sample and it plays smooth

[harryzimm]

No, xbmc does not use 3rd party codecs it will play mkv fine. Btw wouldnt it be better to use linux to take advantage of vdpau hardware acceleration.

cheers

yes i know about vdpau,but i prefer xp as all my network is using it and i dont have the time to go thru a new os ,and it makes easier to install other stuff.
btw the zotac dont have a usb wake option,do you find a different solution?do you use suspend option in xbmc to switch off??

[gui]

[gui]

Make sure the TV is on and on the right input then turn on the pc. If I don't do that it doesn't even make it past the bios post.

Done that ,boot ok with vga and hdmi cables connect but nothing appear on the hdmi,only appear on vga

[harryzimm]

Have you tried booting with only the hdmi connected?

cheers

[gui]

Yes tried that. What drivers are you using?
