Title: XP SP2 : should I expect trouble with Media Server ?
Post by: rudyrednose on July 08, 2004, 06:50:48 pm

With the upcoming release of Win XP Service Pack 2 and its promise to break some applications, should I expect trouble with Media Center / Media Server ?

Have you guys looked at possible issues ?
Any of you running OK with SP2 RC2 and using Media Server ?

I'd rather ask before hand  ;D

I am currently running Media Center 10.0.149 on a Windows XP Pro system with SP2 RC2 and it is working perfect.

You will need to open the port on the newly updated firewall (enabled by default) so your clients can connect.

And remember to take an image of the harddisk before you install! That way you can really go back (deinstallation isn't really going back).
