[access-uk] Re: xp pro and media center

Hi Tristram.

Hope you are well mate.

Sorry I have not responded until now.  Been a bit busy.

My computer is a Packard bell imed 1901. It's XP home and not XP Media Center. I have Power Cinema on-board and this is perhaps why I'm able to get the Media Center. Still not got it to work very well though, but hopeful.

Best wishes
Andy

Perhaps Andy has a Jaws Pro as well, I have always understood Media Centre
Edition as a subset of the Professional operating systems.  It is possible
that Microsoft have managed to juggle things to change this aspect of the
system given there are yearly editions but it was certainly how it started
out and how we were originally advised of the O/S status.

How come Andy's Jaws works on his XP Home computer while it is installed
with Media Centre. I have Windows XP Pro and Have just ordered Jaws Pro. But
Andy's works as is ... and he is running XP Home, so i don't think Media
Centre runs under XP Pro alone.

I respectfully beg to differ with others on this point.

Windows XP Media Centre is a subset (or at least closer to being) of XP Pro
oweing to it's use of encyption which is required for protection of the
media files and does not feature in the XP Home series products which has no

serious file access protection and no file encryption facilities.  Your
screen access product such as Jaws will see it the same way.

Hi all.

Can anyone tell me if Microsoft Windows XP Media Centre is the same thing as
Microsoft XP Professional Edition?

Thanks.

Andy
