Quote: "As I mentioned before, I originally was planning to do this

build with Windows 8 Professional and the Windows 8 Media Center pack,

but thereÂ’s a few things that Microsoft has removed from Media Center

in the new version that make using it for a Media Center a non-starter

in my opinion. Not being able to boot directly into Media Center and

having to boot into Metro and then launch Media Center is a deal

breaker for me so I fell back to whatÂ’s been working great for me

these past few years, Windows 7 Home Premium."

 

Thanks!!
