I just set up my Xbox 360 for wireless gaming and it works fine. What I am
trying to do is set up so I can stream Music, Vid and pics to the Xbox. From what I understand it that Vista Home Premium comes with Windows Media Center and I do have Vista Premium but cannot locate Media Center anywhere on the system. Is there anything I can do to go about getting it since I do not have it and apperantly Vista Premium is supposed to have it already? |

Only Vista Home Premium "Media Center Edition" includes Media Center. You
can upgrade for about $160. "Keith" wrote in message ... I just set up my Xbox 360 for wireless gaming and it works fine.

Vista Home Premium does include WMC.

You're wrong Dave. Here are two examples of Vista Home Premium WITHOUT Media
Center. http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage....1964704 38845 http://www.circuitcity.com/ssm/Acer-...oductDetail.do "Dave" wrote in message ...

Bob,
I don't think you know what Windows Media Center is.... http://www.microsoft.com/windows/pro...diacenter.mspx "But with Windows Vista, Windows Media Center is no longer a separate edition but simply integrated within the Windows Vista Home Premium and Windows Vista Ultimate editions." -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "Bob" wrote in message . ..

I know exactly what Windows Media Center is. I own one.
In spite of the link you gave me the fact remains there are Vista Home Premium machines out there WITHOUT Media Center. That's why the OP can't find Media Center on his Home Premium machine. Did you even look at the links I gave you? "Dave" wrote in message ...

LOL,
Those were links to computer systems that come with Vista. Windows Media Center is a program, that is part of Vista Home Premium and Ultimate. You're probably talking about a computer system designed for playing media, aka a "Media Center PC" or "Media Center System". If the OP has Vista Home Premium, he has Windows Media Center. Or is he/you talking about Xbox Media Center, which is something entirely different? http://sourceforge.net/projects/xbmc/ -- http://get.live.com/wlmail/overview "Bob" wrote in message . ..
