Media Center is a specialized tool that’s designed to run primarily on a computer that’s customized with TV and radio cards or connectors, and that has a very large amount of disk storage space, a large high-resolution display, and a remote control. However, with some—or even none—of these features on your computer, you can still use parts of Media Center.
If Media Center isn’t running, start it from the Start menu. If a Setup Wizard starts, complete it to configure your system.
Scroll through the menus using either the mouse or the arrow keys on your keyboard or remote control. Click an item or press Enter when the item you want is selected.
Move the mouse to display the controls, and then use the controls with the mouse to change channels, fast-forward, and so on; or use the arrow keys and the numeric keypad on your keyboard or remote control to control the play.
To return to the previous page, click the Back button or press the Back key on your remote control or the Backspace key on your keyboard.
