[werner maes]

	hello

apparently it is possible to patch XP Media Center Edition 2005 to 
join a domain, but I can't seem to find out how.
does anybody know which registry patch you need?

kind regards

<quote>When Microsoft released Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, 
the ability to join domains was left out. The domain feature was 
eliminated because of pricing reasons as well as technical reasons. 
MCE 2005 relies on fast user switching to allow it's extender devices 
to connect to the central MCE workstation. If the MCE workstation is 
on a domain, fast user switching will not work, and any extender 
devices will not work.

If you do not use any extender devices, such as the set top boxes 
that allow you to watch Media Center content on your TV in your 
family room from your PC in your office, and you have a need to join 
a domain, it is now possible to make MCE 2005 join a domain. </quote>
