    Well, I just installed XP Media 2005 and it's apparently incompatible with both driver CDs for the Clevo M570RU. It gives me a message saying "OS is not supported" or something.

    Does anybody know why, or what I can do?

    XP SP2, not yet updated to 2005 edition. Still have to get online to download those updates first.

    You can install it fine, as long as you have a MCE compatible TV Tuner.

    Since WMCE is really just XP Pro with media center on top it seems obvious that its just a poor job by the installer writer that hardcoded a check for what OS you have, hard to believe they wouldnt be able to fix that at the company or offer something to download...disappointing.

    Actually its more like XP Home with Media Center... since it does not have all of the Pro features (like the networking features for domains and such)
