    MS WinXP Media Center Edition

    Is the Win XP Media Center Edition the same as Win XP pro?
    The reason for my asking: Would like to upgade to Win XP pro x 64bits.
    I already ordered a CD of Win XP pro x 64bits from Microsoft.
    Thank you

    Check out this thread from a few days ago for MCE info: http://discussions.virtualdr.com/sho...d.php?t=194865

    I don't understand the reason for this,
    The reason for my asking: Would like to upgade to Win XP pro x 64bits
    as MCE is different to 64bit edition.

    Yes, as Liam said, MCE is a different version of Windows to Pro 64-bit. If you really want MCE then you'll have to but it separately:
