    I recently did, what I thought was a clean install, of xp Media Center. What I ended up with for a os is Xp pro with no Media Center. I ordered a Dell about 1 1/2 yrs. ago and it came with Media Center. I have a XP Media center reinstallation disk which I used -- Paul Masson
  • 3. How to obtain Windows XP MCE media
    I am using an emchine computer which had windows XP MCE pre-installed. It came with a recovery disk to recover windows should it fail, however, that recovery process will cause me to lose everything else on the hard drive. I am having problems with the Media Center portion of windows and need to reinstall windows. In order to not affect other data on the drive, I need a copy of the Windows XP MCE media. emachines says their license aggrement will not let them provide me with the original OS media. Does anyone know of a way to obtain that media? I have the product serial number on the machine, but don't know who to ask about getting a copy of the Windows disks. Thanks in advance, Hugh Epley
  • 4. Lost prospective user
    okay, anyone with experience...if you could help me figure out whether XP MC will let me do the following, would be grateful: 1) recording tv - how does it save? is it a file on my computer, which I could then somehow convert to a DVD to save (I have a DVD writer, obviously) Also relevant for a question around using the footage for editing purposes. 2) is it correct to assume that everything is saved in WMx formats? 3) the way I understand the way this works, I'd have to buy a card for my PC which would take the feed from the cable box I have, and which would somehow interface with my stereo system. Do I then control my PC with a remote control, or how does the pause/play stuff work? 4) can I record audio sources like radio the same way I'd record tv (in other words, could I effectively program the PC to record a particular radio channel at a particular time? 5) What are the major issues that have come up with this edition (although I know that is such a general question that I don't expect an exhaustive list...just in case there are major issues that users know about and which I should investigate). Not clear to me from the product specs and overviews that are available how all the above happens. Thanks so much. -- Boris

    I was trying to burn a CD. I use Roxio, I tried Windows Media Player, and Nero. Neither one of these recognized my blank CD-R when I put in my CD-R Drive. It does play cd's with out any problems. I have Windows XP sp 2. Thank you.

How would we know. You don't tell us what machine!

Regardless, you cannot upgrade to XP Pro from MCE. You must do a clean 
install.  And why would you want to?  MCE is just Pro with a couple features 
disabled.

I want XP Pro because I want to add the machine to a domain and MCE doesn't 
allow it.

<Break>

Do not use registry repair utilites
they will probably do more harm than good.
Hopefully the utility has an "undo" feature
