I am running Media Portal on a regular WindowsXP Pro machine.

Should I use MCE drivers for my Graphics card, motherboard, PVR150MCE, and so on? Or shoudl I ONLY use regular XP drivers?

Sincerely
Jan-Erik

    No point using the MCE drivers for your video card as they usually a fair bit behind the normal XP ones (MCE nvidia drivers are just that, XP drivers + MCE extensions).

    Any hauppauge products you can use the MCE drivers (as MCE is just XP Home + the MCE app).

If you you don't have multichannel music you can choose WASAPI as the output and set the number of speakers to stereo. I have...
