HI, i find info, that people had problems with working MP on XP, wich depend of usable hardware.
So, i just want to ask, should i upgrade (reinstall) my OS to vista, with my currently hardware, or keep it and start to install media portal???
I dont want come back to the same point after 1-2 months working hard.

:D

I found with my onboard HD3200 vista was better, but others with the same MB said XP

get 2 HDDs and install both, see what is better straight off the bat and use that
