Don't install the beta version of Media Player 11. Against my better
judgment I installed a MS beta version of MP11. After installing the

Comcast Photoshow.

I have rolled back my software and I am still having problems with the
software.

I have always considered MS final release to be beta until it has been
on the market for at least 6 months, I should have known better.



I don't seem to have programs called "Windows Media Center" or "Comcast
Photoshow."


Harry, Windows Media Center comes with XP only on newer multimedia
PC's. Comcast Photoshow is a download if you are a Comcast Cable
internet subcriber.



Gee. My PC isn't a "multi-media" PC? I wonder what it is missing? :-)
Actually, when I bought my PC parts, I had a choice of OS's, and "media
center" was one of them. If memory serves, it was "missing" some
interesting networking components, so I went with XP Pro instead.

Thanks.


Have you poked around the MS site to see if you can download the thing?
