Hi Derek,
I think it's just a false report by Belarc and nothing to worry about.
Why not use Windows 7 built in System Information reporter and see what that
tells you.
Hit the Start key and in the search box type, system information.
Hit the Enter key then use the numeric keypad and half way down the screen it
will tell you which operating system you have.
I've got an Acer Inspire and mine reads. OS Name: Microsoft Windows 7 Home
Premium.
Tom.

Sorry, my last message was a bit confusing, it should have read.
Where are you seeing the operating system Name as:
XP Media SP2?
The first line of your system information states that the operating system is:
OS Name Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium

Hi Derek,
If you go to Start: Computer, and right click on Computer, and select
Properties, does it definitely say Windows 7 there?

No sure what's happening here, Derek. My system is also Windows 7 SP1
and Belarc reports correctly.
Suggest initially that you uninstall, re-boot system then download again
and install.

Hi Folks
Please could anyone help me, my PC has Windows 7 Premium SP1 64bit
Operating System installed, but when I run Belarc Advisor it reports that my
Operating System is Windows XP Media Center Edition Service Pack 2 (build 2600.
Therefore is it possible to tell Windows 7 to run in Windows Xp mode?, if so
how do I resolve the problem.
Many thanks for any suggestions recieved.
Regards
Derek
