So I think I'm shooting at stars now, as it appears no one has had this problem. I've had MP installed on this system before without a hitch, so I'm positive it's not a Mediaportal bug. I used it soley as a tv client. However I've been forced to recover my system, and now when I go to install MP I get an "OS is not supported by MediaPortal" error Vista 6.0.6000.0. My OS is as listed above... Vista SP1. I've made no hardward changes since the first installation. All updates have been done. Sorry I don't have a log file because MP's not installed to give me one. MP 0.2.3.0 will work, but I find it too unstable to use as a TV client. Any ideas anyone?? Thanks in advance

6.0.6000.0 is not SP1

Please run again SP1 or even SP2, works fine here.

wow do I ever feel like a Noob now... didn't even check to see if my updates were successful. I had thought that Vista Pre Sp1 was 6.0, so I didn't look any further when it showed a higher version number. I've now formatted twice more just to check what's happening. well thanks for that Simone.. Now here's a question then. The Wiki says that Mediaportal will still install even though you get a warning. but that did not happen. It just said OS not supported... then the installer closed. Is this a 1.1 release only feature???

As a tidbit in case anyone wants to know... I did manage to install mediaportal pre SP1 by dowloading the indivdual installers, however the TV client will not find the server... period.

Wiki is wrong then. Vista MUST be >= SP1.

Will update documentation, thx for pointing this out.
