Disaster's MP Install

So I've done a complete uninstall of MediaPortal, downloaded 1.0.2 and Disaster's version of this and installed MP and Disaster's over the top... It seems to have gone all OK. Brought up MP portal and the interface looks quite basic compared to the StreamedMP skin - so will have to install this next.

There were some slight problems... the fact that the CoreAVC codec expired made pop-ups occur in the TVServer configuration that caused it to freeze. After removing the expired CoreAVC and using a reg cleaner, and rebooting, and re-installing... did it start to behave.

But not sure what happened here... was using PowerDVD 9 to watch a DVD (unfortunately no BD movies have arrived yet) and just a quarter of the way through the movie, the HTPC turned off - without any warning!! The movie went a bit stuttery, and then just disappeared. Not sure what happened, but a power up of the HTPC, froze when Windows XP reached the taskbar stage... It then took a few hard powercycles before the PC would boot properly... Weird!
