[QUOTE="fitzy75, post: 1047848, member: 29770"] Hi all I realise that this will not be officially supported but after reading so many reports of people that have got it to work, I'm really hoping that someone will be able to help me with this. Iv'e been on Google all day and read probably every thread on the MP forums related to this but I can't seem to get it going. I've got Windows Server 2008 R2 (all updates installed) which I want to use as a TV server only, it makes sense to keep all my movies and tv shows as well as everything else on one box to lower the energy bills. I'm running a dual core AMD 2.8 chip with 8GB ram and a Pinnacle 7010ix tuner. I will be using XBMC clients so I've installed MP TV Server 1.4 as I've read this is the most stable/compatible with XBMC but I can't get into the configuration at all without the "Unsupported Platform" error message. I've installed the BDA fix and I can successfully tune and watch channels with DVBViewer so I know the card is both installed correctly and working under this OS, but when trying to open MP TV Configuration I cannot get past the unsupported platform message. Many other threads on these forums say that the config screen opens anyway and the message can be ignored, but in my case the config screen does not open at all after clicking OK on the error. Can anyone suggest a way that I can bypass the OS check or gain access to the configuration some other way? [/QUOTE]
