Thanks for the advice. I bit the bullet last night and reinstalled. Almost every thing is back up and running.
The only thing that didn't come back is my DVD burner? I thought I celibrate but when i put a DVD in the drive, MCE didn't recognise it Anyone know how to add a DVD drive in the admin site?

Thanks again,
Paul

Installation issues / Re: Reload MD on core

I must have been rambling too much in my original post. The MD that I lost is the one on my core hybrid. So rebooting doesn’t help. I was hoping for a way to add a Media director back into the core to make it once again a hybrid. Is there a way to do this from the Admin site?
Thanks,
Paul

Installation issues / Re: cant get to boot from DL DVD amd 64

« on: March 11, 2009, 02:18:50 am »

Hi, I am also fairly new at this too, just got my hybrid core running a few days ago. I was loading the 32 bit version on an AMD64 mainly because of some of the other post that I had read recommending the 32 bit version over the 64. Anyway here are a couple of the problems that I ran into that you may also be experiencing.  Make sure your you have a good download, this first one I had was bad (There are posts about how to verify) the other thing I found out was that my new sata DVD  drive would not boot a DVD on the core, I pulled out an old IDE drive and was able to boot fine using that.

Hope that this helps,

Installation issues / Reload MD on core

« on: March 11, 2009, 02:02:24 am »

I just recently started putting together my system, and I have to say that after a few glitches (mostly of my own making) I finally had a functional hybrid core and a separate media director. The hybrid is running on a ASUS M3N78-Pro and the Media Director on a ASUS M2N68-VM. Last night I was setting up the bedroom MD and was messing around with the HDMI video setting.  The MD was locking up on me and I thought, I will just fix the problem with the settings in the Web Admin at the hybrid. When I changed the Video settings for the MD and hit enter a message box popped up with “Are you sure you want to delete this Device” or something close to that effect. I click on No or Cancel and went back to what I was doing. The change resolved the Video on the MD. But my MD on the hybrid was gone. So to try and make a long story short, can anyone tell me how to either recover or reinstall the MD on my core without having to completely reload my hybrid core? Thanks so much in advance.
