UK_Widowmaker 571 Posted April 25, 2009 In my experience, you are better off with Pro for a multitude of reason's! (just not sure that OFF is one of them) I run with XP pro, and it's fine Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(just not sure that OFF is one of them) I run with XP pro, and it's fine Did some readings that XPpro disadvantige is that it could be having problems in game graphics and XP media is big and clumpsy , but I'm always do the tweakings and remove every not necessary parts. Keeping it lean and mean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jammer28 0 Posted April 25, 2009 XPmedia will probably add more bloat. If you don’t need it then go with XPpro. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wels 2 Posted April 25, 2009 Hello, get the post 2004 Media Edition ! Apart from some additional programs that are not coming with the XP Pro and Home edition, the Media center one indeed IS the pro edition - can be changed to pro with 2 minor adjustments, but you still have the benefits of the media center like automatic recording of TV, codecs etc. Greetings, Catfish Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parky 8 Posted April 25, 2009 What will give me the best performance for OFF3;XPpro or XPmedia edition both sp2 and 32bit. If you wanna' gear your system towards HTPC use as well as gaming, go with Media Edition. As far as BHH performance goes, there should be no discernible difference between the two OS versions.
