However, it takes... 1 7/2/2007 9:06:02 AM Xbox Extender Search Problem My media center extender for XBox used to work perfectly. Now, I am unable to enter letters with the numeric keypad in the search function. Now it doesn't even show the keypad on the screen.

Microsoft Media Center Edition owners ( or renters, as maybe is more leagally correct to say here in free America ) are now at the mercy of yet another lunacy, people whom enjoy recording cable for personal use are required to purchase hard disk recording in place of inexpensive DVD recording media to be within the compliance of copyright law.
