Default NVIDIA FX5700 and Media Center flashes

Not sure where to post this, but whenever I start windows media center all it
does is constantly flash on and off. I am not sure if it is a WMC issue or a
NVIDIA one. I suspect that it has to do with the NVIDIA driver but I can not
confirm that.

Is anyone else having the same issue?

I am using Pre RC-1 and the new NVIDIA dirver (96.33)

The program actually still works as long as you click when the screen is not
black. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

The 96.33 drivers download page states that they are only for RC1 so I am
not surprised that you are having problems.

That dont really help does it. We are having problems and all you can add is
that you are not surprised, every build i have installed has had ms default
nvidia drivers and as i said i am using an nvidia 6800gt and it worked fine
with build 5600 with default drivers so in theory should also work with later
builds using default drivers unless ms ha screwed up the drivers since 5600.

Why waste your time adding useless information?
