I've been running Windows Media Center (WMC7) using this board reviewed on the HD Nation with 2GB of memory and Windows 7. Although not speedy it's doing the job. And I do love the look and functionality of the new WMC7.
But, I do have one problem in playing music and watching a slide show simultaneously. The CPU pegs at times, the memory never gets above 35% utilized and the N-wireless network consistently streams at 20-22Mbps.
Can listen to Music with WMC and watch pix with Adobe photoshop elements 8, no problem. While this workaround is great I'll continue to debug because I do love the slideshow wall option while listening to Music.
Will try 1GB wired connection then look for new microcode to debug. Any other suggestions? Will post results if anyone interested.
