i am unable to install media center extender, the setup program hangs right
after execution and displays the following error message. "there is a problem
with the installation of windows xp media center edition 2005. uninstall the
update to media center edition 2005 and then re-install the update from the
windows update website. then run the media center extender setup again."
prior to this i was unable to run the windows media center rollup update 2
but found a conflict with the setup program and windows media player 11.
uninstalled wmp 11 and got the rollup update installed and ran the extender
setup on the clean rollup 2 install and still get the same error message. i
am running sp3 btw also. any help greatly appreciated thank you for your time

Sorry, messed up that other post. I'm getting the same error. Everything
was working just fine until SP3 came along. MCE would connect to my XB360. I
was updating the extender and keep getting the same error message that you
posted below. That I must re-install the update to MCE 2005. That is BS.
That is the 2nd time I've had to do that. I will let you know what I find
out.
