vinodh Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 (edited) If you right-click on My Computer>Properties>General, it will say Windows XP Media Center Edition 2002. That does not mean you DON'T have MCE 2005. It's just the version of XP thats 2002. To view what version of Media Center you have , startup Media Center and go to Settings>>General>About Media Center>>Software Version. Remember: check this within Media Center, not XP. Here's a screenshot of what you will see: Edited January 3, 2007 by vinodh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can convert an OEM copy of MCE 2005 into an upgrade version by modifying setupp.ini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
