I have 2 Dimensions 9200 and 1 Dimension E520 all purchased this year, all with 256MB nVidia 7300LE TurboCache graphics cards.  All three have 1 gig of memory, Intel Core 2 Duo Processors, and running XP pro, SP2.  All three have Media Suite 9 installed.  All three have the same version of the graphics card. Only one of these machines will render a movie or create a DVD.  The other two will display the render screen, but nothing happens.  I checked the processes when trying to create a DVD on one of the machine's and the CPU was running at 50% or more for over an hour and no completion meters showed up on program.  Any idea's of how two fix these two machines is much appreciated.

If by the above statement you mean it sits at 0% progress, then try the following (even if you have the current video drivers installed already) on those two.

Uninstall the video drivers.
Reboot so the default Windows vga drivers install.
Install the current Nvidia driver.
Reboot.

Now try. (Note, you should get a message about your video card being re-evaluated).

Thanks for the info.  I tried it on the one 9200 that was not working and that fixed the problem.   The E520 machine is off site, so I will apply the same fix this evening, and hopefully it fixes that one too.  Again, thanks for the help.

Happy to hear that helped. Thanks for posting back.
