Yeah, I've tried that. GPOE is not one of the plugins that is offered. I tried adding the 2 security plugins, but they don't seem to have the options I need either. I've downloaded 2 spreadsheets from MS that have some of the policies and they're mappings in the registry. I guess I'll need to go over that with a fine toothed comb. If anyone finds anything though, please share.

Well, I've decided to go back to XP Pro, but in case anyone wants to know, the registry key is HKLM\Software\Policies\Microsoft

from there create the new key "WindowsMediaCenter"

select the new key and then create a new DWORD value under that called "MediaCenter" and give it a value of 1.

Reboot.

I believe this will completely prevent MediaCenter and all of its related services to start up.

You can also change it under HKEY_CURRENT_USER.
