MCE 2005, WPA2 and SP3

Recommended Posts

Does MCE 2005 support WPA2 and wireless connections out of the box after installing drivers for WLAN (I have an Atheros AR9285)? Just wondering.

Also, is SP3 installable at all?

 

EDIT: There's 2 CDs. How do I put them on USB as one or should I simply install 2004?

 

Thanks

I did not find any info online about Media Center 2005 and WPA2. You'll have to try it to find out.

Service Pack 3 is designed only for Windows XP Home and Professional. Trying to install it on Windows XP Media Center will probably fail.

For Media Center 2005, there were two rollups, you can install them and see if WPA2 works:

Update Rollup 1 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005: https://web.archive.org/web/20130103023854/https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=24011
