    ya its all good
    i know what to do, i figured it out!
    it works with 2.02 ghz perfectly man
    u have to do a clean install with the first cd and then put the correct cd key in when it asks u then later on it asks u for the 2nd cd. but a bit of adice..it asked me for the windows xp sp2 cd but luckily i had slipstreamed sp2 into my old xp pro cd so i was saved.

    Im thinken of doin that too, but im worried if i will lose all my music and stuff on my pc. Should i back up anything and what did you have to re-install and put back on your pc once you converted to MCE.

    I downloaded MCE 2005 from the net and it came with 2 folders, one called Cd1 and the other CD2. Outside of the folders is a file called 'brick' and it is an MSinfo Document file. I burned the 2 Folders to 2 seperate CD's but i dont know what to do with the file called brick. I dont know how to install it either. inside each of the CD folders there is 3 files, a .BIN file, a .CUE file and a .SVF file.

    What should i do with the 'brick' file and how should i install MCE on my computer?
