I've used videowave (Easy Media Creator 9 Suite) for two projects, both wonderful. In re-editing the second project (slideshow with motion...jpg only) black cells appeared in place of photos; tried deleting cell and moving photos into that place and then those photos disappear. Tried burning to DVD to see if just graphics rendering problem but black cells show on DVD too. I never drag to disc; use button on menu. Right-clicking on black cells shows nothing. Inserting new pictures from file into "black" cells also does not work. Cells remain "black." Tried changing background; that does not work. Please help.

Using new (fairly) Dell 410 XPS (4 MB L2 Cache, 2.4 GHz, 1066 FSB)
Intel Core2 Duo E6600
Windows XP Media Center
2 GB DDR2 SCRAM
16DVDRW w/double layer write capability
13 in 1 Media Card Reader and 3.5 in floppy drive
256MB ATI Radeon X1300 PRO
Integrated 7.1 Channel Audio
320GB Serial ATA 3Gb/s Hard Drive (7200RPM) w/DataBurst Cache

I believe your video card is the choke-point in your system. Check to see if the program is set to hardware rendering or software rendering, and let us know.

Also, update your video card drivers, and make sure you have the latest Direct X.

Unfortunately, DirectX isn't always on that list. Get the latest DirectX here.

Also make sure you have the latest X1300 drivers. Another user has reported problems with this chipset. I hope we can get this sorted out soon.
