Critical Update for Windows XP Media Center Edition (329979)

SUMMARY

Issues Resolved

This update provides stability and performance enhancements, and resolves the following issues:

If you try to record an episode of a series that has been removed from the schedule, the whole series is deleted. (For example, if you schedule a series to record, cancel the current episode from recording, and then schedule the current episode to record by using Guide or the One Touch Record feature. If you do this, the current episode is recorded but the rest of the series is deleted.)
Program Guide may take up to 10 seconds or more to appear, and may cause the video to freeze while it is loading.
Some or all one-time and series schedule recording requests may be unexpectedly removed from the Scheduled Recordings menu. This does not affect manual recording requests.
