[QUOTE="limpwhizkid, post: 614401, member: 68258"] I just wanted to share this with you a small how to use windows 2008 with aero enabled to use mediaportal client on 2008. this way mediaportal is stutter free and it looks nice aswell (like windows 7). Here is how you do it the thing you need is a graphics driver for you card that is compatible with 2008 (vista or win7 driver is usually good, i use win7 x64 driver nvidia) Ok select features: .net framework Desktop Experience go to the services.msc panel set the services to automatic and start the following services: Themes Windows audio services (some machines require a reboot after this change) now go into your display settings (right mouse etc).. the Windows7 aero theme should be selectable.. you did it .. you got a windows 7 view.. Now install the mediaportal client.. (advanced install to add the client only if you have tvserver already on it) voila... youre done.. workstation server all in one :D [/QUOTE]
