I have a running system which upgraded happily from about .37 I think , its been over a year. When the upgrade to .40 took place my media directors simply would not get past the black screen. Both my media directors are MSI Hetis 865GV-E here is a link

As I also stated previously if someone from pluto would like to have a look I m happy to assist as I have a non funtioning system.RegardsDean
