Hi Guys

So i just installed xbmc, and then downloaded AEON MQ4 from its website. Installed it and then switched to it. But it seems the skin is not loading properly at all :( Look at the image below:

HELO :(

As you can see there are random lines at the back that makes the actual skin look really ugly. This happens through out the skin for various things. Such as the on screen keyboard.

I am on windows 7 and an intel NUC.

I have tried to reset the skin, reload the skin and restarted xbmc as well as the pc. What is wrong? Has anyone else experienced this problem?

I am really sorry to be so annoyinh guys

Have you downloaded the skin from the web (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=135045) or from within XBMC?

Went on to this:

http://www.marcosqui.com.br/downloads_english.html

Then downloaded the Aeon MQ 4 - zip version. Then i went on addons, install from zip and selected the skin. When it finished downloading, this is what comes up. THe front menu looks fine, but everything else looks pretty bad.

Cheers for your reply, really appreciate it

Have a look in the extracted zip file for the jpeg backgrounds. Are they corrupt or do they look fine?

What resolution are you running? Something standard (720/1080) or something different?

Hey mate, thats for your reply.

There are no currupt jpeg backgrounds. After a lot of trying, i rolled back the driver. This fixed the problem.

But because this was the first and only driver installed, i am guessing that by rolling back i dont have a graphics driver installed anymore?

Does this mean i cant use dual hdmi? What now :(

Really appreciate your help

From looking on the XBMC forums people have fixed the problem by installing the older version of the graphics drivers. WIthout doing all the legwork for you i'd be googling for those and installing them instead.
