System screen is blank

I recently switched skins from BlueMCE to the default, and now I when I go to the system screen where gbpvr shows you the available HD space, It's blank, just black space. Should I remove any extra skins?

Hi,

I'm posting a part of my log file at the point where I tried to go into the system screen... looks like there is an xml error and then further on an error trying to find the disk usage. I had turned off disk indexing on my recording HDD, would that have caused it not to be able to see the disk usage? I have turned indexing back on, but that didnt seem to work.

Thanks,
Kevin

A couple of other users have had this over the last year or so. I've dont know why it happens.

I made 2 changes at once so it's hard to say what caused it to start happening. I changed the skin and turned off disk indexing and then when restarting the front end, I couldn't see the system screen anymore. Do you think a reinstall would do the trick?
