Did you try completely removing (soundspectrum) G-Force (folders in program files, and Documents and Settings) also?

"C:\Documents and Settings\username\Application Data\SoundSpectrum"

And do a clean reinstall?

I would try that. Make sure you got your registration code saved. And download G-Force again.

Thanks

Did that, with same results

hmm, odd. I seem to had that problem, and reverted to WMP10.

But then 11 worked again after reinstalling. I don't know what the solution is..

Hopefully the pros can help.

I have a similar problem
I'm using Vista home premium Intel Duo core processors
and have tried the clean,uninstall and reboot method twice
but am still getting a pixellated image.
Also tried reducing the resolution to the absolute minimum with no success
and to be honest I wouldnt want to run my PC in that way anyway.

Can someone help me out here as always used G-Force easily before on WMP 11 and Xp no problem.

I had a similar issue, try this: go into WMP and turn off G-Force. Then turn off SRS WOW effects. Turn G-Force back on and it may fix your issue.

Well tried that even though WOW wasnt turned on anyway....
It made no difference at all still the same.

Any other ideas out there people ??

sometimes when you upgrade or reinstall GF a bug may happen where it does not replace the prefs file completely resulting in a mismatch between version numbers, when this happens GF doesnt work right.

I dont have vista so I dont know where the soundspectrum folders reside but search for soundspectrum and find the folder containing the prefs files and delete it. then restart your comp and reinstall GF .

this has helped many other users with probs like yours.

the only other thing I can think of is maybe your video drivers need an update.

hope this helps.
