the two have problems both with ATI cards... but Bruce also has an ATI card... I'm wondering if the three of you can check what is the date of the ATI driver you are running by going to DirectX Dignostic Tool (Start -> Run -> dxdiag -> Display tab)... maybe we can find some pattern there (at least I'm hoping)

Snapshot:


BTW the above date is just the file date of the driver. The driver date is found in the properties of the display adapter in the Device Manager. The driver date is 3/23/2004.
(right-click my computer> Hardware tab > expand display adapters > right-click adapter properties > driver tab)

I also have an ATI card and could not reproduce the issue in Media Manager. See attached.

I have new characteristics. In the first box (below), the list is scrolled to the top.














And finally, in the midst of generating these images-- to my consternation, the scrollbar disappeared on me:

[MDOC]

I don't want to add to the confusion, but here's yet a new characteristic:
Just close every node in the list... and viola! The list completely disappears!

Edited to add: if clicking a node does nothing at all (that's part of the bug), do it the second time and the node will close.

thank you all for the feedbacks... and apparently there is no pattern at all...

It looks like awoo87 and Marv are running the same version of the driver but one has issue and one doesn't... one thing caught my eyes regarding the date of the driver awoo87 is running... it shows 9/02/2006!

awoo87 and MDOC, can you guys try to update msxml from Microsoft website and see if it makes any difference?

As I mentioned before, the 9/2/2006 is just the date stamp on the file when it was installed to hard disk. Find the driver manually and look at the date stamp; you'll find it's the same.
