Missing Win XP Pro 2003 MCE Media Disk CD2!

[paulnkathy]

Someone said here in 2005:  "take a look into the XP Ultimate-Thread and you will find all things, which are needed "

 

Cant find the thread.

Trying to reinstall win xp pro SP3 2003 but don't have the Win XP Pro Media Center CD2 media disk. My laptop computer has Win XP Pro 2003 and MCE Media Center installed on it but I dont have the Media Disk CD2. How do I get around that. Download somewhere? Work arounds? I'm open to al options. Thanks. Paul

"XP Pro SP3 2003"????

 

Uhhh, no such beast. You actually mean -

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP_editions#Releases

...Freestyle (the first release - to OEM's)

You'll have a fun time finding CD#2 then.

My laptop computer has Win XP Pro 2003 and MCE Media Center installed on it but I dont have the Media Disk CD2

To my knowledge Freestyle (has SP1) -

XRMPFPP_EN - MCE2002 CD#1

XRMSD2_EN  - MCE2002 CD#2

I have *some* of the CD's (including a Dell Restore) but

1 - You're being unclear of exactly *which* MCE version you have and

2 - You haven't said what your CD#1 Label is (see labels I gave above) and

3 - Nobody her van give you a copy of CD#2 or a link to one even if we knew which one and

4 - What do you mean by "workaround"? Media Center is a kind of "add-on" having nothing to do with the "base" XP Pro. Indeed, "Freestyle" CD#1 is *exacly* the same as XP Pro CD (note the CD label / Volume Name).

 

If you could tell us *what* problem you're having then *maybe* someone here could help?
