Mar 16, 2007I have Windows Vista Business Edition; I know that I cannot install that version over Windows XP Media Center, so I was wondering if I can install XP Pro over Media Center without having to reformat, and then install Vista over Pro (also without having to reformat).

Mar 22, 2010my OS went from Media Center to XP Pro and I didn't do it! Now I cannot (or computer cannot) access Common Files, among other issues. For example: Trying to open Common Files (to look for file referenced by Logitech install issue) results in error "C: not formatted". My computer probs all began with some auto update that restarted my computer; upon restart, error "Windows could not start because following file is missing or corrupt: C:WINDOWSSYSTEM32CONFIGSYSTEM". Every time i start computer, it looks for mouse driver, then finds and identifies it then can't "find file specified" and default-directs to C:Prog Files/Common Files/ etc etc. I ran chkdsk, defrag, etc. Finally I ran sfc /scannow and was instructed to insert disk 2 of XP Pro, but I don't have XP Pro. I don't want to take up a whole lot of space with my issue; the above is the end result (so far) of much troubleshooting. And somehow an OS that started off as Media Center became XP Pro.

Feb 25, 2008This problem only started recently but I cannot think of anything I have installed or changed that would have contributed.Some time ago, I installed Media Center 11, and when it didn't work well, rolled back to 10. Everything worked ok for several months after the rollback.About two days ago, when I attempted to start MC10, the program screen would come up, then the program shuts down with no error message.I can find no uninstall, either in the directory or in Add/Remove Programs, so I attempted to reinstall over the existing program. The installation program advised that the program I was attempting to install was already fully installed.The problem continues and I am unable to use Media Center 10.

Jan 1, 2007I am working with my son to build a new computer. We need to decide which Microsoft operating system to buy / install. We have a new ASUS motherboard and an Intel Pentium D 3.4GHz (dual core 64 bit). We also have a PCI express 16 graphics card. His primary use is gaming and also MS office applications for school.I have pretty much ruled out XP Pro 64 because I am reading about lack of application and driver support, but open to input on this.We need to choose between XP home, XP Media center, or XP pro (all 32 bit). I am not particularly concerned about Vista upgrade, although I do understand the upgrade path from XP Media includes the full graphical interface improvements in Vista Aero, and the upgrade from XP Home does not.

Jul 19, 2009I am currently running Vista but have begun having screen freeze and other problems. I have pretty much decided to install Windows XP.

It ends up generating a crash report, and closes. I've take 2 screenshots of the error. The first screenshot is of the first error that comes up upon opening the Media Center. The second screenshot is of another error I get when I choose to cancel instead of clicking ok on the first error.
