[QUOTE="peely, post: 262621, member: 60933"] I have to say that I don't get many problems with stability on W2003r2, especially after RC1. The only really noticable problem is with skipping, when I skip +-15 seconds it has no effect, 30 seconds or above seems to work but the further you skip the more out it goes, for example a 5 minute skip request ends up skipping 10-12 minutes. What I do have though is a couple of command files, one which runs on the server and listens for a signal (waitfor) and restarts the TV Service if a request is seen from another command file on the client. This allows me to use Auto Hotkey to request a TV Server restart, which is generally about once a week. I'm not certain enough that I'd see a significant improvement in reliability if I moved to Win XP given the hastle of reinstalling a multi-role server. I guess I could set up another test PC running Win XP and try that for a few days... Neil. Installed drivers, fitted card, showed driver install where drivers were. Sorry, it was that easy! Neil.
