Hot Sync Software Not Compatible With Windows XP Media Edition?

Hi All,

First, congrats to Treonauts for all the well-deserved recognition.

Question - I'm running Windows XP Media Edition. I cannot successfully install the Hot Sync software to my computer and therefore can't sync/upload/download to my Palm. I called Palm and they said that their software won't work with XP Media Edition. Does anyone know of any patch or work around that I can use?

Thanks all!
-Kirk

XP Media Centre Edition is basically XP Pro with the TV software added so in theory anything that runs on Pro should work on MCE.

What happens when you try to install it?

I thought it was XP home, but I could be wrong.

It can connect to a Windows domain which Home can't, it also has full multi monitor support which again is restricted in Home

Alrighty, color me corrected.

Back to the original question though, what errors do you get when you try to install?
