Okay, I have Windows MCE 2005 and my sister loves it, so much she's asked me to convert her PC into a Media Center one. However, after stumbling upon Media Portal, I have to say I'm seriously considering installing MP instead of MCE 2005 on her system.
However, before I install it on my sister's PC I'd like to try it out myself and get a feel for it and compare it first hand to MCE 2005 ... and this is where I have a couple of questions.
If I download and install MP with it override or do anything to my current Windows Media Center settings?? I understand I can run both MCE 2005 and MP on my PC (but not at the same time obviously), but I don't want to mess my system up (as it all currently works fine). Also if I install and run MP will it automatically work with my MCE 2005 remote? Is it literally install and play?
