Mobility 9000, Travelmate 803 & mce

I´ve booted up my old laptop: Acer Travelmate 803 to use as a media center pc. I installed the system with standard drivers, and tried to start windows media center. But it said that I didnt have a supported graphicsdriver.

After looking around on the net, I came to the conclusions that Omega drivers would be my best upgrade. I upgraded and MCE started nicely without errors. BUT when I got so far as to installing it in my livingroom and pluging in to the TV, it went black.

When I start MCE on the TV it goes black, unless i hit the windows key and the start-menu shows up, then I can see MCE beautifully in the background, but as soon as I activate the MCE window again it goes black. This happens both in dual and single display variations on the TV and laptop.

Any suggestions?
