DreamScene crashes

Hi

If I attempt to run any default Windows DreamScene Content as my desktop, it
runs for 5-10 secs then crashes with a message "DreamScene has had an
unrecoverable error while decoding the video" and desktop goes a solid black
colour. My video card has 256mb onboard memory.

Any ideas?

Re: DreamScene crashes

I managed to fix a similar problem simply by uninstalling Dreamscene then
reinstalling it.

Re: DreamScene crashes

Hi Byron

tks. I'll try this. You mean to Uninstall the Dreamscene Updates thru
Windows Update? Both of them?
