I installed Media Center on y ps which has an onboard "nVidia Geforce4 MX
256-bit 3D engine" video card. When I try to startup Media Center I get an
error saying that my Video card is not compatible with Windows Media Center.
It will simply not play any movies through Media Center where I can play them
using another media player...

I tried downloading the newest drivers from nvidia.com but still no luck.
Anyone any ideas? Or is it simply impossible to get it running with my video
card?

Cheers

Your card is not compatible with MCE. You must have a card that has
hardware MPEG capabilities. Next time, before taking such a big leap, check
the System Requirements to verify that your hardware is compatible. There
is a list of compatible cards on the MCE website.
