Windows Media Center shows no image after driver update.

[Vegeta]

Not even sure I'm in the right section but since I updated my graphics drivers and a lot of knowledgeable people use this section I'll ask here.

I have a GTX480 and a Compro S350 freesat card which I watch through windows media center. Basically updated the drivers by downloading the latest through the nvidia site and did a clean reinstall. Everything works fine except when I try and watch TV I get the sound but no image. I reverted back to old drivers by just uninstalling and letting windows install them and then it all works fine again. I want to use the latest drivers obviously to get any performance increases in games especially BF3 etc so is anyone aware of what the issue might be or hazard a guess at it?

Thanks very much guys.

It's a known issue with the latest drivers. nvidia have acknowleged it and are working on having it fixed for the November release.

Ah thanks. I went back to the beta drivers before and BF3 and WMC both work so I'm happy.

I still have the same problem.

There is a fix there, but you need 2 screens apparantly. So yeah I'm waiting for the new driver too

Sadly BF3 wins over watching tv, but still, very annoying. I hope they release it very soon..
