So I downloaded a fresh ISO, created a DVD and ran the upgrade. All seemed fine as it actually ran and opened up, then...
The first issue was no internet, because it somehow forgot the network adapters on the Mobo. I thought no big deal Ill just reinstall them...Well no, because at the same time it lost the network adapters it decided it no longer wants to see the DVD player tha it just used to install itself.
Definitely not ready for prime time at this point.
Im back to trying to fix the primary version of 7 at this point is going to require a format of the drive and reistalling everything. Maybe I'll look back on this in a few weeks when there are a few more updates when its a little more usable.
As far as Media center goes, I've never used it myself.
