Hi Guys
Iam a bit of a newbee and have searched the forum for the best OS for a New HTPC I am building . Iam mainly gonna be using it to watch Divx movies...
Which OS in you opinion works best and will get the most out of Hardware. I was thinking of Vista 64 bit .. but have never used vista before and have all bad things.. my instinct is to stick to xp 32 bit ( shame MP is not compatible with xp 64)
Any help would be appreciated.
Spec
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+
Samsung SpinPoint F1 HD103UJ 1TB Hard Drive SATAII
Asus M2N68-AM Geforce 7025 Socket AM2+
Palit 9500GT 1GB DDR2 VGA DVI HDMI PhysX and Cuda ready
4 gig DDR 2 6400 RAM
Regards
Ish
