I think, Mptray should help me but it does not (after installing from mediaportal folder i see nothing new in tray). I work in Vista Ultimate and Start button on remote launches Vista MC...
Sorry for silly post - i`ve just needed to reboot.

Update: first time i launch Vista pressing Start button launches both Media Center and Mediaportal, after i exit from both, next press of this button launches Mediaportal. Any suggestions?

    You'll need to disable the MCE services, there's something in there that watches for the start button.

    Can't remember off the top of my head, but I believe it's talked about elsewhere in the forum.

    If you run "Services.MSC" you should see the MCE services pretty easily, just right click them, "Properties", and set their startup type to Disabled (I think Manual would work too)

    Hope that helps,
