HI Pidde.What do you class as really slow channel switch ? My system takes about 3 seconds to change which is fine i think.As far as MP is concerned, my experience is that it has always had a " Sluggish slow feel " to it. It's just how it is, but very tolerable...Also, the type and brand of TV card can make a big difference in channel switching speed.Me personally i am staying away from Vista for a HTPC because it requires a fairly beefy system in the first place. I have Vista on my PC but it is running a Quad Intel CPU and 2 gig ram with Sli graphics.. It runs fine but would be a MASSIVE overkill for a HTPC. I say stick with WinXP.Hope this helps...cheers.
