[QUOTE="promille, post: 361461, member: 87307"] Just copying what I wrote in another tread, since this one seems more appropiate: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't think I have the skills to contribute very much in making MP running on XP x64, but I would really like to try! Here and there I see people asking why anyone wish to run XP x64 on at HTPC, but when I first have built myself a HTPC with 4GB RAM it feels OK having the possibility to use them all! And when it comes to XP vs. Vista, I feel XP is the best alternative (consuming less resources). So far Windows XP x64 have caused me strange network problems (no 32bit applications seems to have network access, while Internet Explorer 64bit had). Never figured out what was wrong, but a fresh install fixed it. Had to be a little "clever" to install Windows Live Messenger 9, but the Hauppauge DVB-S2 card installed nicely. The WinTV application from Hauppauge workes fine when it comes to uncoded SD channels (haven't found any uncoded HD channels to test). At this moment the MP installation is preventing me from testing MP. Despite MP's lack of support for XP x64, I would like to give it a try since I have XP x64 up and running with drivers to all my hardware. I also have the impression that several people are running MP sucessfull on Server 2003 (and also XP x64?), so I think it is a fair chance to get it working Don't know what to expect from writing this, but if anyone have a trick to force the installer on XP x64, please tell me! It would ofcourse also be very appreciated if anyone (with time) manages to make MP fully support XP x64! The hardware I am using on my HTPC is as follows: * ASUS MB M3N78 PRO AMD AM2+ AM2 DDR2 1066 800 667 533 NVIGEFORCE 8300 * AMD ATHLON64 DUAL-CORE 4850E (2.5GHZ) SOCKET AM2 L2=512KBX2 CPU RETAIL BOX (chosen mainly for it's low power consumption) * KINGSTON DDR2 HyperX PC8500 4096MB CL5, Kit 2x matched HyperX 2GB DDR2 * SAMSUNG F1 1TB 3.5" SATA2 7200RPM 32MB * HAUPPAUGE WinTV-NOVA-HD - Satellite S2 receiver HD ready * HAUPPAUGE WinTV-NOVA-TD-HD USB DVB-T Mpeg4 (planning to connect this one, but have the impression that Hauppauge supllies x64-drivers) [/QUOTE]
