Can not run XBMC
#1
I installed XBMC today on an up-to-date Windows XP system and all i get is the "XBMC Media Center has encountered a problem and needs to close." and to send error report to microsoft. Any Ideas?

When run, it goes to a completely black screen then it shrinks to a smaller black screen and displays the error message.
