 Recorded TV was working ok on new LCD TV for 1 week. But am now getting
dreaded black screen after clicking Windows Media Center. Was ending show
when screen went black. Have downloaded recent windows updates as well as
download drivers from NVIDIA (7300 Series). Driver download seemed to
successfully load but still black screen. Tried to redownload driver but
received error message the operating sytem not compatible with NVIDIA 32 bit
download. Thoughts?

Running MC in a window on a secondary display has sometimes been known to
cause a black screen?
