Pliek Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 (edited) Thanks muiz for this clear explanation how to get this working,I wil test this later (after queensday party) and let you know my results.However i'm not using RunOnce but WPI, so have to test how to do this in WPI (I will sort it out).Nice job.

muiz Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 It works , however i noticed something strange.When i start MCE for the first time , when you get the wizard...during that wizard it says:That the evaluation version is over.The strange thing is , that i have no evaluation version but a bought OEM version.

tuknuh Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 if i remember correctly... the april update includes all the previous updates/fixes after Rollout 2... therefore you'll only need the following:- Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 (KB900325)- April 2006 Update Rollup for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 (KB914548) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJB Posted June 3, 2006 Share Posted June 3, 2006 Maybe this should be make a sticky, so we know what vital updates are needed for MCE.This information served me well, and it would be nice to see it kept up-to-date. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
