Is it possible to have Windows XP PRO SP2 and Windows XP Media Center Edition installed on the same computer with a multi boot option? I have a program that won't run under Media Center Edition but will run under XP PRO. :whistling:

If you right click the programme icon, click properties, compatibility, is there an option to run it with XP

On the same tab, tick turn off advanced text, click apply

What program icon are you referring to? I am running Media Center Edition now by itself.

Maybe I should have said that some hardware drivers for my Nextel phone will not work with Media Center Edition.
