video corruption on main screen

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Hey All,

I'm experiencing some strange video behavior on my fresh install of MCE
2005. The best way to describe it is that there are small blotches of
red and pink rectangles across the screen. I've put a screenshot up
here in case that helps:

My system is a pretty plain Dell dimension 8400 with an nVidia 6600GT
PCI Express video card. I have the latest drivers and have applied all
the rollup patches to date, but can't seem to shake this issue. I'm
connected to my ViewSonic LCD display via DVI and have run the display
wizard inside of Media Center under the "laptop" config and the "LCD"
config. Both don't work.

Under normal XP things are working great. Videos, games, everything
seems normal except when I launch Media Center from the Start Menu.

Any ideas?
