I spent several hours today working on a brand new, out of the box, HP Media Center machines with Vista 32bit loaded on it.

Within 30 minutes I had a BSOD trying to install updated drivers provided through Microsoft Update.

The Media Center TV card did not work at all with the pre-installed drivers. Oh, wait, it would play channel 5 but that's it.

Every time I tried to load drivers from Windows Update the system would either fail to load them or BSOD.

I went to HP and found a patch that "fixed" the problem with the drivers but it was not easy to find.

I was not impressed.
