I have an old desktop of mine that is my old gaming computer. We recently got cable and I now got this crazy dream in my head of using it as a HTPC with DVR capabilities. I have already wiped the HDD several time just trying to get windows installed (turns out dust buildup on the CPU heatsink can do weird things and make it overheat).

I have copies of 98, XP, Vista, and 7 that I can install, but from what I have gathered XP is going to be the most compatible. So if I have read everything right these are the steps I should follow: 1) Format drive and install XP 2) Perform all windows updates 3) Install Windows hotfix found in MCE (Forgot which one it is, it's mentioned on the forum) 4) Install Video and TV Card drivers (Which ones should I be using?) 5) Install MP 6) Several modifications have been mentioned for once at this point such as modifying the XML file and manually adding atimcenc.dll. Which of these are still relevant and should be applied if any? I am currently at a point where MP recognizes the TV Tuner but will not pick up the channels when a channel scan is performed. :S Any help would be greatly appreciated :thx: [/QUOTE]
