Has _anyone_ been able to get Viiv running with Vista?
One thing I have noticed is that Intel plasters 64-bit technology all over their Viiv site and goes on about how it really makes multimedia look good... except if you actually go looking for Viiv, Intel does not support Viiv on 64-bit XP or Vista; you can only put it on a 32-bit OS??!?
Also another thing noticed, the only way you can get Viiv 1.6 (the Vista version) is to _upgrade_ from the 1.5 (XP media center version). I.E. they only have an upgrade version and do not have a 'clean' install Viiv??!? Viiv is not a supported option with new Intel Viiv-capable motherboards in a new Vista installation.
No Viiv with Ultimate or Premium, unless you actually upgrade from XP MCE??!? If anyone knows how to do it otherwise, I would really like to know. I was planning to build a htpc but I certainly wasn't planning to buy XP MCE first.
(I just edited to include htpc in the title for additional exposure)
