GameEx just started craching when run in Vista MC

Hi I've been using gameex for some time now and absolutely love it as it has been working fine but the other day I did the normal update within gameex and it continued to work. After an uncheduled reboot I loaded gameex again for my son and whatdya know it now won't run below is the log stating a directx error.

Also if I close vista media centre and run gameex from the desktop shortcut it runs fine so I am bit confused to say the least.

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: Please note the following for possible solutions to your problem:

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: 1. Ensure you have the latest version of DirectX installed.

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: 2. Ensure you have the latest Manufacturer provided video card drivers.

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: NOTE: Windows/Microsoft Update does not contain the latest.

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: NOTE: Manufacturer normally means ATI, NVidia, or Intel. Not the brand.

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: www.ati.com www.nvidia.com

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: 3. If you do not have a modern video card try the following. 1. Turn off advanced Graphics. 2. Try a lower resolution. 3. Try turning on and using 16-bit colour

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: 4. Ensure any required video codecs are installed.

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008: 5. Try a different theme, or try running the theme at the resolution it was designed for

08:41:07.6 26/01/2008:

Anyone have any ideas as to what may be going on?
