Everything was working fine for a month and yesterday I got the following
error when trying to download the TV programming guide:

File Validation Error - mismatched guide package Code : 20

I've searched Google, MS, XPMCE, and Green Button and found many other
people with the same problem and no solution (I already tried deleting the
EPG files and it still doesn't work).

Any help is greatly appreciated.

TIA,
Jim

Make sure your regional settings in control panel are set correctly and that
you have entered a correct zip code when trying to download guide. If you
have a choice of more than one source to download from pick the one that
matches your set up (analog, digital etc)

I had a heck of a time with the guide a week or so ago. I could download on
one side of my dual boot config, but the other kept giving me errors.

Although I knew it wasn't the guide info, for the heck of it, I downloaded a
different guide -- basically the same as mine, but with premium channels
that I don't have. For whatever reason, that worked. Then I manually deleted
all the premium channels, and it's been working fine since.

It's worth a try...

See my post from 8/21/05 and other posts earlier. There is no answer for
this problem that I have found. I've contacted Microsoft and they are unable
to tell me what "Code 20" is let alone fix it. I've been told that they "are
working on it" with the MCE 2005 developers. Meanwhile the only fix that I
know of is to reinstall the Operating System (Windows XP MCE2005). I don't
know if the fix would be worth the headache. Bill S.
