Unhappy vista media center Help!
Hello, hope someone can help.
After moving from win98 to the world of vista where microsoft takes control, finding microsoft can lead you down a path you do not want to go down with the automatic updates.
Main prob is media centre has stopped working and crashes after 20 secs or so, whatever you are doing, No extenders added.
