Hi,
Ever since I have had Media Center I have been experiencing this horrible
"Files are missing or currupt for radio or TV...." I have had this problem
since I got it out the box. I've installed WinDVD 6 only which is OEM,
downloaded all device drivers and have upgraded to Media Center 2004. DVD
works perfect it's only this annoying message when I ty to start My TV. I've
talked to Tech support which were no help, sending me to Microsoft Tech
support, and getting nothing. Really Microsoft should do something, as their
are thousands of posts regarding these error messages on this forum and
others, using Google. To me Microsoft does not really appreciate helping
their customers with support into getting Media Center todo it's most popular
use...TV!.

Thanks

Dave.
