I just purchased a firewire audio interface (a.I.) and am finding out that Media Center Edition of XP Pro does not play nice with these things. Apparently the a.I. software may not be certified for MCE, I don't know exactly what the issue is but from what I've read online the a.I. software won't install if it reads MCE as the OS. This occurs whether or not the Media Center services are enabled or disabled.

Is anyone familiar with this issue?

I have an old copy of XP Pro. If nothing else works I may have to install it over MCE. If I do, will that wipe all my settings and will I have to reinstall all my programs or is there a way to do a nice clean XP install over MCE and save everything else?

thanks,

Veech
