Will it work on Win XP Media Center Edition? I tried a plugable brand adapter but that version of XP is not supported. btw, I am on sp3.

It should be fine as long as you use the manufacturer drivers. the edition of Windows XP you're using doesn't really matter beyond the fact that you have service pack 3 which is the best you can have.Not sure what adapter you used before, but it would be strange indeed if it cared about so minor a detail as the edition of windows xp you're using.

I've had issues in the past with Plugable brand as well. I've used this product for a few months now, and while there have been a few times after a windows 8 crash, when the screen wasn't seen by the OS, XP is much more stable than the newer versions of windows. I'd say yep, even with SP3 on the media center.

to be honest ....I got one for my XP Media Center but it turned out to small for my casing so had to return it .......... Check on it at @http://h20565.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/template.PAGE/public/kb/docDisplay/?sp4ts.oid=3688699&spf;_p.tpst=kbDocDisplay&s;pf_p.prp_kbDocDisplay=wsrp-navigationalState%3DdocId%253Demr_na-c01475840-22%257CdocLocale%253D%257CcalledBy%253D&javax.por;tlet.begCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken&javax.portlet.endCacheTok=com.vignette.cachetoken Looks OK to use........

It links to Windows Media Center, so as long as you have that, yes. Though I will be quite honest with you, don't buy this. Mine lasted all of 2 weeks, was a pain in the butt to use, and there is ZERO support for it. When I bought this I was trying to avoid buying an XBox, but after this failed I bought a used 4GB XBox for $99 and it works for Media Center streaming flawlessly. I really wish I would have bought the XBox first. The only issue you will have is upgrading to Win8.1 (if you do) you have to pay extra for Media Center, so if you are doing the media streaming thing, stick with 7.

It may work for windows 8, but not for the windows 8.1 and updates to windows 8, I made several attempts to get it to work, followed all suggestions from pawtec.com and nothing made it work. They cited that the windows updates made the usb 3.0 ports "bad" to where they would not recognize devices. They work for other things, so I can't see why it would be that they wouldn't work for this, and think it is a problem with this product and not with windows, but I've seen other people have problems with other usb 3.0 external players of other brands that kept recognizing/unrecognizing, and not playing discs just like this one did to me. If you have windows 8 with no updates, you may be safe using this, anything later, I wouldn't chance it. I'm returning mine for a refund and will try something else.

Yes, I have used it in XP, Win 7, and Ubuntu with no issues. It also works well with Sony and Samsung TVs and BR disk players that have a media playback feature.

It works with MCE in any Windows 7 that has it. Will also work with Media Portal which is an alternative to MCE.

Sarah, thanks for the question. Not sure if it will work on the Dell XP sorry. We have only used it on newer OS hardware...

I have Windows 8.1 and still have the disconnection problem, even after following others' advice here and changing USB power settings and updating drivers from the Mediatek website. So, yes it works, but will drive you crazy disconnecting and reconnecting.

I don't know. I'm using the 32-bit XP drivers and it is working perfectly! Also I forgot that it works in the same way as an analog video grabber from NTSC/PAL video sources. It was tested on a long run about 18 hours raw video (PAL) without a problem or a frame drop! This is true for both - the RCAs and S-Video interfaces.The room temperature was very high ~ 36*C and in these torture conditions the tuner/grabber is rock stable. The TV capture is perfect too. BTW I have 4 of them and they all are amazing devices.

Mine gave me problems.My advice to you is do not purchase this item. Get one without the square thing in the middle. I bought a different adapter without the square thing andhad no proplems at all with windows XP.

Don't trust on that. I bought a brand new remote from Microsoft, saying it would work in Vista Ultimate or Xp. It works on XP (windows media player only) and XP Media Center, but not on Vista. I tested with 3 computer (2 with Vista Ultimate and 1 with XP). It will not work in Vista.

Works well with my Windows XP and Windows 7. Haven't tried it with a later windows yet. Do you have an IT person that could help you with this question?

Hi David---I don't know the answer myself, but I found a Microsoft website that says this works with Windows XP 32 bit only. I would want to see what other people have to say about it as well.
